The contracted engi- neering firm, Branch En- gineering, was called in to resurvey the work that had been done on the in- tersection and determined that Wildish Construction had done everything ac- cording to the plans the construction company had been handed. Upon inspection of site design documents, howev- er, it was found that infor- mation used for creating the construction docu- ments of the crosswalks had been entered into the computer incorrectly, re- sulting in three crosswalks not following the contours of the road. The input error was not fully realized until after the finished concrete had been already poured into forms and the forms re- moved. One of the original pro- posed solutions was to reshape the whole inter- section. However, “the en- gineers felt that it would be a better overall product if we just fix the existing concrete that needed to be fixed and not reshape the road,” said Stewart. The engineering firm elected to cover costs of repair. “Branch [Engineering] has stepped up and they are the ones that are going to pay for the corrections,” said Stewart. “The city has helped with doing flagging to reduce the costs for the project and we also took out some pavement be- cause we’ve completed the repairs to the to northern crosswalks along Taylor.” The southwest corner of the intersection now re- mains the last item to be fixed, the completion of which will mark the Safe Routes to School project as completed. Initially estimated to cost almost $1.7 million, the safety project address- es key safety concerns on five routes to Cottage Grove schools. For most of these routes, safe side- walks are an issue. Stewart estimated the corrections should be completed in early July. The issue kicked up an energetic discussion both in the council and in the public when it first arose in March. Some on the council were perplexed with how it the situation emerged in the first place and some in the public were eager to find the par- ty at fault. Stewart expressed hope that future issues would be allowed to be resolved without premature fin- ger-pointing. “We try really hard to find out — when we do have an issue — to find out why we have an issue and resolve it,” he said. “People should give us time to fig- ure that out before they go out and say things. Wild- ish did exactly what they were paid to do.” Some comments on so- cial media cast judgement on the construction com- pany before any fault had been determined, which Stewart noted was unfor- tunate because the com- pany employs many local community members. “They had a set of plans that were given to them, they built it exactly the set of plans, and for folks to immediately blame the contractor, that’s too bad, because they did do a great job,” he said. “And it would have been nice if we would have recognized or we would have called it out before the concrete was set, but unfortunate- ly that just didn’t work in this instance.” YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE!
