With mulitple projects under construction at the <br />same time, the city asked Burke to provide construction observation as well as project <br />management services for this groundbreaking project. <br />Garnering buy-in from the community and store owners along Jefferson Boulevard was of <br />utmost importance for the first of many planned projects of this type. The city worked to <br />create a space that was aesthetically pleasing and functional for pedestrians and vehicular <br />traffic at the same time. Updated intersections, improved pedestrican crossings and paths, <br />and improved parking all added to the project’s benefits. <br />In an effort to streamline the construction process, our inspectors created a Google Docs <br />account as well as a project blog to share with the entire project team. Using the technology <br />in this way kept the team easily informed with daily progress updates. Burke managed the <br />project to complete it on time and within budget. <br />PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS <br />• Streetscape project <br />incorporating complete street <br />concept <br />• Blog and Google Docs for <br />easy distribution of daily <br />updates <br />• Part-time construction <br />observation <br />• Field reports, record keeping <br />and daily logs of progress <br />• Payment application <br />processing <br />• Project management and <br />close-out <br />CLIENT <br />City of South Bend <br />Division of Engineering <br />TIME PERIOD <br />2014 <br />CONSTRUCTION COST <br />$1,496,000 <br />PROJECT TEAM <br />Jason Durr <br />Jeremy Morris
