A roadway and intersection improvements with a mini roundabout. Included pedestrian, bicycle, and parking improvements using a shared-use path, pedestrian crossings and new parking areas. The design improved the connection to the existing City Rail Trail. The drainage system was upgraded, lighting added, utilities were improved, and landscape and streetscape beautified the area.
The team completed the engineering and design of a pedestrian bridge and associated roadway improvements. Villanova’s ultimate vision was to transform an existing paved surface parking lot between Lancaster Avenue and the SEPTA Norristown HighSpeed Rail Line into an attractive living and learning environment.
Provided transportation engineering and conceptual design services. In the planning stage, the team undertook a vast multimodal data collection effort, determined existing and projected traffic volumes, analyzed the traffic operations, prepared VISSIM traffic simulations, developed conceptual designs for both at-grade and bridge replacement alternatives, and participated in extensive public outreach.
The Citywide Bicycle Master Plan for the City of West Palm Beach included an extensive public outreach process and agency coordination. The master plan provides a guide to the city regarding bicycle corridors, ultimate bicycle facilities and appropriate treatments to elevate the city that requires minimal motorized transportation.
As a consultant on this task order-based contract, the team performs work and is responsible for managing sub-consultant teams in the preparation and submittal of various types of traffic studies and assessments. This includes safety studies, qualitative assessments, signal warrant analyses, intersection analyses, arterial analyses, left‐turn phase warrant analyses, supplemental tasks and fatal crash reviews.
City of Fort Myers Bicycle & Pedestrian Master Plan is part of an ongoing general planning consulting contract for the Lee County MPO. Efforts included an extensive inventory of existing bicycle and pedestrian facilities, literature research, a needs assessment, agency coordination, and a robust public outreach process.
A new ±113,000 sq. ft. elementary school (Pre K-2 Grade) with student capacity of 636. The team provided mechanical, plumbing and fire protection design. The scope included all new HVAC system, nine variable refrigerant systems and three single zone VAV rooftop units.
A new elementary school is designed to accommodate 740 students. The team provided mechanical, electrical, plumbing and fire protection design, and the facility was designed to exceed ASHRAE 90.1 requirements, IBC and Montgomery County Energy Conservation Codes, as well as recommendations from the publication “Energy Efficient Design for New Buildings.”
Alliance Barker Cypress is a 17-acre garden-style multifamily development located near the Barker Cypress Reservoir in Harris County, Texas. Our civil design team provided complete due diligence, subdivision platting, civil design and CORPS outfall permitting for this new apartment complex.
