and will not be cancelable or subject to reduction except upon thirty (30) days

is available, or on a "claims made" basis if not available. When coverage is

insurance for a period of three (3) years after this Agreement expires or is
terminated. Such insurance will have the same coverage and limits as the policy
that was in effect during the term of this Agreement, and will cover
CONSULTANT for all claims made by CITY arising out of any errors or
omissions of CONSULTANT, or its officers, employees or agents during the time
this Agreement was in effect.

00 0106 92, including symbol 1 (Any Auto).

other evidence of insurance or copies of policies as may be reasonably required
by CITY from time to time. Insurance must be placed with insurers with a current
A.M. Best Company Rating equivalent to at least a Rating of"A:VII."
F. Should CONSULTANT, for any reason, fail to obtain and maintain the insurance
required by this Agreement, CITY may obtain such coverage at
CONSULTANT's expense and deduct the cost of such insurance from payments
due to CONSULTANT under this Agreement or terminate pursuant to Section 16.

approval to use any consultants while performing any portion of this Agreement. Such approval

Crenshaw Boulevard is a primary
arterial route for Torrance and the South Bay region,carrying an average
of 58,000 vehicles per day.The northbound I-405 freeway on/off ramp
is congested during peak hours and additional capacity is required.The
pavement in the project area was in need of major rehabilitation due to severe
deterioration.The project involved the design of 8,400 LF including pavement
rehabilitation,traffic signal improvements,curb,gutter,and sidewalk repairs
and capacity enhancements at the freeway on/off ramps,traffic control
services,ADA-compliant improvements,and Caltrans encroachment permit
processing.The City's goal was met by adding capacity to the freeway ramps
and rehabilitating the pavement,thereby reducing traffic delays and improving
the driving conditions on Crenshaw Boulevard.
