Phase I and II Transportation Planning and Design

This project included (1) completion of the Phase I study for this new 6.2-mile east-west corridor which included a new bridge over the Fox River and (2) the Phase II design for the westernmost 1.1-mile design section along this corridor.  The three-legged intersections at Huntley/Boyer Road and Randall Road is to be reconstructed into four-legged intersections with the addition of Longmeadow Parkway on new alignment through a farm field.  The design combined an “interim” 2-lane cross section at Huntley/Boyer Road and in the farm field (for future expansion by developers) and the “ultimate” 4-lane section at Randall Road and to the east. The land acquisition process in this design section was farther along than any other design section, so the design schedule was expedited so that construction could start earlier, thus meeting expectations of the Kane County Board.

Phase III Construction and Resident Engineering

Thomas Engineering Group provided Phase III Construction Observation Services for the bridge portion of this project (Section Number 13-00215-20-BR).  The scope of work included the new construction of approximately 2000 feet of new concrete roadway and multi-use path through the Brunner Family Forest Preserve tying into a nearly 800-foot-long steel bridge crossing the Fox, four MSE Walls, detention basins, and an overpassing pedestrian bridge which carries users of the Brunner Family Forest Preserve Path over the new roadway.
