Exhibit I

Upper Station Restrictions

 

The following restrictions apply to construction activities occurring at the Upper Tram Station.

 

A.  Ambulance access to OHSU Hospital:

 

Primary ambulance access is up Sam Jackson to the Emergency Room Ambulance Admitting Area at South Hospital on Sam Jackson Park Road. Access via Sam Jackson Park Road must be kept open 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. Utility installation in Sam Jackson Park Road must be preplanned and coordinated to maintain emergency vehicle access at all times. Backup routes must be established and maintained during any activities, which impact or potentially restrict emergency vehicle access on Sam Jackson Park Road. The Contractor’s Traffic Control Plan must address avoiding or minimizing impacts to ambulance access to and from OHSU Hospital.

 

B.  Life Flight:

 

The helicopter pad located on the roof of OHSU Hospital South will be required to be operational throughout the entire construction period. The flight path must be maintained 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Hoisting and rigging equipment must not infringe on the existing flight path and needs to be approved through the FAA permitting process. Contractor must submit and develop a construction plan for Owner approval that demonstrates that Life Flight will not be impacted by construction activities.

 

C.  Streets and access:

 

All of the roads within the OHSU campus must be kept open at all times unless otherwise approved by Owner through the Contractor’s Traffic Control Plan.

 

D.  Patient and staff access, parking and egress:

 

There are approximately 8800 employees and 1700 patients that enter and leave OHSU on a daily basis with approximately two thirds entering and leaving the campus in vehicles, the other third use Tri Met. There are 7 parking garages within the OHSU campus with a total of 3974 parking spaces.

 

Peak traffic hours for OHSU staff are 7am through 9am and 3pm through 7pm, Monday through Friday. Patient traffic entering and exiting OHSU is fairly stable throughout the day.

 

Particular concern must be paid to any traffic impact that would affect Homestead Drive and Gibbs Street. Neighborhoods in this area are very sensitive to increased traffic, and the narrow roads and tight corners will make deliveries on these streets impractical.

 

Impacts to the existing primary access streets to the site, Terwilliger Blvd and Sam Jackson Park Road, need to be evaluated in the contractor’s planning and innovative ideas for minimizing traffic impacts are needed. Contractor’s Traffic Control Plan shall address the methods for eliminating or minimizing traffic impacts on the OHSU campus and in surrounding neighborhoods.

 

E.  Pedestrian traffic:

 

The safety of patients and OHSU staff on campus must be a top priority to the contractor. The Contractor’s Traffic Control Plan must demonstrate how pedestrian and bicycle safety is being provided in the Work Area.

 

H.  OHSU deliveries to and from the campus:

 

Construction truck traffic into and out of the construction site for delivery/removal of materials may not impact operations of existing loading docks.

 

G.  Contractor delivery of construction materials to the site:

 

The Contractor shall develop a plan for staging and storage of construction materials that does not impact ongoing operations on the campus. Trucks cannot be allowed to park on OHSU roadways or restrict OHSU traffic for employees, patients or deliveries at any time, unless approved through the Contractor’s Traffic Control Plan.

 

H.  Infection Control, Dust, Fume, Odor, Noise, and Vibration Control:

 

The contractor shall understand the need for an infection, dust, fume, odor, noise and vibration control program. Operations in buildings adjacent to the construction site are very susceptible to these issues that could be generated from the construction activities. The Contractor shall submit and implement a plan for reducing or eliminating these issues for Owner approval.

 

I.  Worker parking:

 

Existing OHSU parking facilities do not have the capacity to accommodate construction workers. The Contractor shall develop and submit a plan to the Owner for approval showing the location of offsite construction worker parking and proposed worker transportation routes.

 

J.  Radio frequencies:

 

Radio frequencies to be used by the Contractor must be approved and coordinated with OHSU to minimize impacts on OHSU campus radio use.
