Description
Award Purpose the Project Consists of Two Elements 1 Expanded Intermodal Rail Capacity and 2 Cargo Gate Optimization. The Rail Capacity Component Will Construct Two New Rail Tracks Approximately 3200 Feet Long with Access Rail Acquire Three New Electric Rubber Tired Gantry Cranes Reconstructs Apron Areas on All Sides of the Track Installs Led Lights and Reconstructs the Stormwater Drainage System to Address Sea Level Rise. The Cargo Gate Optimization Project Will Include Roadway Realignments to and from Cargo Gates Rehabilitation of the Stormwater Management System to Address Sea Level Rise Cargo Gate Canopies Staging Areas for Trucks Direct Access to Rail Yard Gates Relocation of Cargo Gate Support and Terminal Offices and Technology Including Rfid Readers Ocr Optical Character Recognition Wim Scales Remote Inspection Equipment Gate Management System. Activities to Be Performed This Project Will Fund Three Components at Portmiami Design Criteria Package Expanded Intermodal Rail Capacity and Cargo Gate Optimization. Component 1 Initial Design Criteria Package the Design Criteria Documents for the Expanded Intermodal Rail Capacity Project Consists of the Following Submittals Preliminary Program and Refined Conceptual Design and Rough Order of Magnitude Construction Cost Estimates. Design Criteria Package with Detailed Parameters and Narratives Including Track Conceptual Layout and Footprint Sustainable Design Requirements Utilities Gantry Crane Hurricane Tie Downs Truck Turning Analysis Etc for a Design Build Contractor to Successfully Build the Project. Technical Specifications for the Electric Rail Gantry Cranes to Align with the Expanded Intermodal Rail Design. Component 2 Design Build Expanded Intermodal Rail Capacity. Construction of the Access Rail Track Two New Tracks Approximately 3200 Feet Long Each and Installation of a Railroad Switch to the Tracks Within the Intermodal Rail Yard. Removal and Replacement of Existing Pavement. Reconstruction of Apron Area Including Filling and Grading to Create a Stable Base for the Train Tracks and Apron. Reconstruction of Stormwater Drainage Structures and Placement of Asphalt Paving in the Apron Area. Installation of Additional Led Lights as Required for Security Purposes. Additional Cargo Handling Equipment Including Three 3 Buy America Compliant New Electric Rubber Tired Gantry Cranes E RTG to Be Acquired by Portmiami to Load and Unload the Containers from the Trains. Component 3 Design Build Cargo Gate Optimization the Optimization of the Cargo Gates Will Relocate and Modernize the Cargo Gate System for One of Portmiamis Primary Container Terminals and Includes the Following Elements Roadway Realignments to and from Cargo Gates. This Includes the Improvements Such as Paving Fencing and Striping on the Road Leading to and from the Relocated Gates. Rehabilitation of the Stormwater Management System to Address Sea Level Rise High Tides Storm Events and to Minimize Flooding. New Cargo Gate Canopies as Required Along Both the Inbound and Outbound Security Gates. New Staging Areas for Trucks in the Problem Resolution Area. Direct Access to Intermodal Rail Yard Security Gates. Relocation of Cargo Gate Support and Terminal Offices to Accommodate the New Cargo Gate System. Gate Modernization to Include Rfid Readers Ocr Wim Scales Remote Inspection Equipment and Innovative Technology for the Gate Management System.
