Miami Street Improvements

DGL performed the onsite inspection and field engineering required for the Miami Street project. A primary feature of the roadway improvement was the construction of a new cul-de-sac at the Jackson and Miami intersection, along with the introduction of a boulevard-style street section. The project was performed as an ODOT LPA project, therefore, all work was required to comply with ODOT specifications to ensure reimbursement. DGL was responsible for all aspects of the construction administration process, including the completion of EEO forms and the periodic review of certified payrolls for the City.

Construction work consisted of resurfacing, streetscape, lighting, landscaping, sidewalks with ADA crosswalks, and concrete curb installation. Services also included resolution of as-built quantities for use in processing pay requests. Items having substantial bearing on the project schedule included significant truck movement at the Miami and Sandusky Street intersection; proper maintenance of traffic signage to avoid blockage of deliveries to the area; and the protection of pedestrians as they traveled through the construction work area at the Jackson / Miami intersection.
