CIT Y OF SOUTH BEND <br />PE Ser vices for Safe Routes to School <br />Our Lady of Hungary Neighborhood Sidew alks and ADA Ra m ps <br />VS Engineering, Inc. | Letter of Interest 10 <br />PROJECT EXPERIENCE <br />VS has completed an engineering feasibility study and is currently <br />under design for a 4.5-mile-long trail from Life Bridge Church to Fitch <br />Road in northwest Allen County, Indiana. The study included route <br />alternatives, preliminary design plans, and an estimate of construction <br />cost for a 12’ wide asphalt trail, a new trail head, two existing bridge <br />rehabilitations, and connection spur to the parking area within Payton <br />County Park. <br />The project is a key link to the 81 mile long Poka-basche Trail, which <br />will ultimately connect Pokagon State Park near Angola to Ouabache <br />State Park, in Bluffton. The trail is generally located within the <br />abandoned New York Central railroad corridor. The project required <br />coordination with Allen County Highway Department, Allen County <br />Parks & Recreation, Fort Wayne Trails, and local stakeholders. <br />The ADA compliant trail includes one public road crossing, and a trail <br />spur to access Payton County Park. Special design considerations <br />were given to ensure the existing trees and waterways were minimally <br />impacted in order to preserve the trail corridor in natural setting. <br />Construction of the trail section is scheduled for 2020. <br />PUFFERBELLY TRAIL <br />CITY OF FORT WAYNE <br />This project included the complete design <br />services for retro-fitting sidewalks and curb <br />ramps into a built-up environment. The existing <br />sidewalks and curb ramps were deteriorated and <br />not in compliance with ADA standards. <br />Design services included topographic survey, <br />environmental document, and the design of <br />sidewalk and 123 curb ramps for Lincoln Primary <br />and 98 curb ramps for Perley Fine Arts Academy. <br /> <br />Many of the sidewalk and curb ramp design <br />locations required unique design solutions to <br />allow the ramp to be designed within the ADA <br />guidelines, while negating the need for additional <br />right-of-way or any utility relocations. Both <br />locations were ultimately constructed under <br />budget. <br />SAFE ROUTES TO SCHOOL <br />CITY OF SOUTH BEND
