Roadway

Resurfacing, Restoration, & Rehabilitation (RRR) of SR 858/Hallandale Beach Boulevard from east of SR-7 to west of Lakeshore Drive. (MP 0.233 to MP 2.176).This section of roadway is classified as an urban principal arterial – other. It is a 4 lane divided section with 12′ thru lanes. There is type f curb and gutter on the inside/median and 5′ paved and 7′ unpaved outside shoulders. HBC responsibilities included:

• Preserve and extend the service life of the roadway through milling and resurfacing.
• Restore and widen the existing shoulder as necessary to provide 5′ paved (for bicycle lane) and 1′ unpaved shoulder.
• Reestablish grass swale where possible in sections that have been filled in with asphalt.
• Construct sidewalk as necessary to establish connectivity.
•  Address ADA ramp deficiencies.
• Perform drainage analysis and propose drainage improvements as necessary to addressexisting flooding conditions.
• Upgrade signing and pavement marking.
• Evaluate all existing signal strain poles not called for to be changed to mast arm.
• Upgrade the existing strain pole signals at the intersections of SW 40 Ave. and SW 56Ave. to mast arms.
• Provide pedestrian countdown signals and video detection cameras at all signalized intersections.
• Provide landscape enhancements to supplement the beautification project (423269-1)between SW 55 Ave. and SW 48 Ave.
• Perform Utility Coordination

Staff Support
HBC responsibilities included stormwater design, Zone 3 design lead, QA/QC of the miscellaneous walls, production of drainage structures sheet for Zone 7 using ASAD and Geopak. HBC also provided staff support for CADD and junior structural engineer for in-house structural design team.

ITS Hub Site Plans
HBC was tasked with the development of the I-595 ITS hub site plans in accordance with RFP contract documents and specifications. Responsibilities included site engineering and post design services requiring coordination with multidisciplinary agencies and consultants. The project included three hub locations along I-595 / I-95 corridors.

Utility Base File
HBC personnel served as interdisciplinary coordinator for the entire project. Among HBC’s responsibilities was the coordination of utility activities, generation of utility design base files, and resolution of conflicts in all zones (Zones 1 through 8). HBC’s innovative approach led to an increase in operational efficiency and cost savings.

Lighting Design
The I-595 Express Corridor Improvements Project consists of the reconstruction of the I-595 mainline and all associated improvements to frontage roads and ramps from the I-75 / Sawgrass Expressway interchange to the I-595 / I-95 interchange, for a total length of approximately 13 miles.  HBC was responsible for the overall lighting design of all zones (Zones 1 through 8).

The major work along the existing roadway within the project corridor is milling, resurfacing and overbuild with cross slope correction and widening of the NB shoulder to 10′ paved and 2′ unpaved and the Southbound (SB) shoulder to provide 5′ paved and 7′ unpaved. This project also involves re-grading roadside slopes, upgrading drainage and maintenance of traffic. Other critical elements of importance for the successful implementation of the project scope include: wetlands on both sides of the corridor, adjacent Curry Hammock State Park, existing shared use path on the west side, Florida Keys evacuation in event of an emergency, bicycle-pedestrian marking in or within 1 mile of an urban area, and transition between the ongoing project (FM# 419854-1-52-01) on the southernmost limits of this project and recently completed project (FM# 405582-6-52-01) on the northernmost limits of this corridor.
