CITY OF SOUTH BEND CE SERVICES: COAL LINE TRAIL PHASE IIB DES #2200199 6 <br />RELEVANT PROJECT EXPERIENCE <br />Coming together is the beginning. Staying together is progress. Working together is success. <br />Heritage Trail | Winona Lake, IN | DES #0810409 <br />This project was a 2.2-mile Lake City Greenway Trail for the Town of Winona Lake. <br />This project consisted of two typical trail sections, a 10’ wide concrete section in the <br />downtown area, and a 12-foot asphalt pavement section inside the former Chicago <br />Boys Club park area. There is also boardwalk that connects the new trail to the <br />existing Lake City Greenway Trail. This project also included amenities like a <br />trailhead entrance/plaza at the Grace College Sports Complex, special trail <br />directional signs, a parking area, special gates, and seawall design along the Winona <br />Lake Canal <br />By identifying a strategy that could save <br />on the quantity of backfill, A&Z RPR Matt <br />Curry proposed a way to save the <br />community $130,000.00 <br />Additionally, this project blocked the <br />entrance to Grace College’s sports <br />complex-potentially reducing attendance <br />at events and ultimately affecting the <br />college’s revenue. The team devised an <br />alternate, yet convenient route that had <br />minimal impact on event attendance. <br />BUDGET-FOCUSED APPROACH <br />Pufferbelly Trail | Fort Wayne, IN | DES# 1600772 <br />The Pufferbelly Trail, much like the Coal Line Trail, was established on an old <br />railway and included refurbishing the railroad bridge over Spy Run Creek. We <br />incorporated seating, lighting and signage int our design for added <br />convenience. <br />This trail is now enjoyed by as many as 58,000 people a month! <br />COMMUNITY-FOCUSED <br />APPROACH <br />The Pufferbelly Trail was a much- <br />anticipated addition to the City of Fort <br />Wayne, so the public was eager to learn <br />about progress. A&Z went out of their <br />way to provide information to media <br />outlets and trail websites on top of <br />regular communication with the <br />stakeholders and nearby property <br />owners. <br />During the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum parking lot project,not only did they work to minimize the disruption of the traffic flow on Coliseum <br />Boulevard,but they completed the project on time and under budget.From the administrative staff of A&Z Engineering to the members of the <br />construction supervision crew,they were all professionals who went the “extra mile”to assure the satisfaction and quality of their work. <br />Randy L.
