7 City of South Bend| Inspection of Olive Street Phase 2 Road Improvements at RR Xing | R-43125 | Des. #1920178 <br />Project Experience <br />Intersection Improvement on Union Chapel Road from Greenfield Avenue to SR 32 <br />Construction Services Project Manager: Scott Dick <br />This project included several phases of road, bridge, and trail construction on the east side of Noblesville <br />to provide an improved traffic and pedestrian thoroughfare. USI was responsible for the construction <br />management and inspection of phase 1, 2, and 5, as well as landscaping. Prior to the beginning of phases 3 <br />and 4, USI was also responsible for the early action projects and the total construction cost was $12,600,000. <br />Phase 1 included the extension of Town & Country Boulevard to the new alignment at Union Chapel Road. <br />Three lanes of HMA pavement were constructed with storm sewer and a BMP structure, concrete curb and <br />gutter, earthwork, a multi-use trail, ADA ramps, and pavement markings. <br />Phase 2 included 4 lanes of HMA pavement with two roundabout intersections, mass earthwork, storm <br />sewers with two BMP structures, multi-use trails, decorative concrete, brick pavers, street lighting, pedestrian <br />crossing signs, and pavement markings. This phase included a large twin Conspan bridge structure, bridge <br />railing, concrete moment slabs, two Conspan pedestrian tunnels, cast-in-place concrete retaining walls, MSE <br />walls, timber handrails, and other pedestrian handrails. Clearing the right-of-way, building demolition, and <br />sanitary sewer were managed during the winter months ahead of the beginning of phase 3 and 4. <br />Phase 5 included the busy intersection of Union Chapel Road and Greenfield Avenue (SR 238). A roundabout <br />was constructed at this location along with street lights, pedestrian crossing signs, decorative concrete, <br />concrete curb gutter, ADA ramps, and brick pavers. The new roadway alignment included three lanes of <br />HMA pavement, earthwork, multi-use trails, and vegetated swales and detention ponds to meet storm water <br />quality detention requirements. <br />This project constructed 2 miles of new roadway. The roadway connects Michigan Road to the <br />new US 31 interchange being built at 7th Road, and then continues east, tying into Linden Road <br />at its east terminus. This project included the first roundabout in Marshall County. This project <br />was constructed through a wetland, and required that an adjacent wetland mitigation site be <br />constructed. Constructing this roadway through a wetland was difficult, and involved removal <br />of peat and 17,000 cubic yards of unsuitable soil. The construction of this new roadway was <br />coordinated with the opening of the new US 31 interchange serving northern Marshall County. <br />The three 7th Road projects were completed with a total cost of $6,000,000.00 in November 2015. <br />7th Road (Veterans Parkway) and Bridge #310 - Marshall County <br />Construction Services Project Manager: Scott Dick
