City of South Bend | Coal Line Trail (Phase II) | Construction Engineering Services | 11 <br />PENNSY GREENWAY TRAIL <br />PHASES II AND III <br />Schererville, Indiana <br />DLZ was retained by the Town of Schererville <br />Parks and Recreation Department to provide <br />the design and construction engineering <br />services for the second and third phases <br />of the Pennsy Greenway Trail. This 3.5-mile <br />section of the trail received Transportation <br />Enhancement funding and lay within a high <br />priority corridor. <br />The project extended from Schererville Town <br />Hall northwesterly along the abandoned <br />Penn Central railroad corridor to Main Street. <br />This phase connects to existing trails at both <br />termini. The project completes a nine-mile <br />continuous section of the trail in Indiana. <br />Also included with the trail is a trailhead, <br />Hawk pedestrian traffic signal, retaining <br />wall, decorative fencing, two parking lots, <br />trail signage, and wetland mitigation. <br />DLZ performed construction engineering, <br />materials testing, and record keeping <br />in conformance with INDOT and FHWA <br />guidelines. <br />LASALLE TRAIL, PHASE III <br />St. Joseph County, Indiana <br />DLZ provided construction engineering <br />services for the extension of the LaSalle Trail <br />shared use path from Auten Road to the <br />Indiana/Michigan State Line. Work included <br />construction of ADA compliant infrastructure <br />with trail being 10 feet wide and hard-surfaced <br />concrete pavement with 2-foot shoulders. The <br />length of the path is 5,700 feet. <br />The path follows the alignment on the existing <br />former railroad bed and aligns with the trail <br />from the previous phase, LaSalle Trail Phase <br />II. Coordination was required to align the path <br />from the south side of State Line Road to the <br />north side with the existing IN-MI River Valley <br />Trail. <br />TAMARACK TRAIL <br />North Liberty, Indiana <br />Construction engineering services were <br />provided for the construction of a new <br />4,600-foot asphalt trail from Quinn Road <br />to Wabash Avenue. The trail connects <br />the North Liberty Community Center to <br />the North Liberty Youth League Ballpark <br />along the abandoned railroad corridor <br />(formerly Indiana, Illinois, and Iowa <br />Railroad). Approximately 2,200 feet of <br />woods were cleared as part of the project. <br />Construction of the project also included <br />subgrade treatment, compacted aggregate, <br />and seeding. Coordination for the project <br />included maintenance of traffic, staging of <br />construction, construction schedule, and <br />material testing.
