Retaining walls were required along the Monon Trail <br />to provide adequate vertical clearance over SR 32 and Tournament Trail Drive, while staying <br />within existing right-of-way and avoiding various utilities. The retaining walls for the bridge <br />approaches utilize "large block construction." The piers have a concrete form -liner that has <br />a similar look as the retaining walls. The structure is a five -span painted prefabricated steel <br />truss structure with one span at 65 feet and four spans at 120 feet each. The main span for <br />the new structure is 176 feet long. The project also required a high level of coordination with <br />several businesses and government agencies. <br />CR 100 S from Dan Jones Road to Ronald Reagan Parkway <br />CLIENT: Town of Avon — 6570 East US Highway 36, Avon, IN 46123 <br />APPROXIMATE PROJECT COST: $12.8M <br />Completed in March 2024, in this two-mile stretch, two additional travel lanes with a <br />boulevard style center median, a new bridge over Clark's Creek, and roundabouts at Salt <br />Lake Road, County Road 900 East, and All Points Court were constructed. The roadway <br />provided improved access to Avon Logistics and alleviated traffic congestion for the public. <br />The reconstruction started with Duke Energy's transmission line guy wire conflicting with <br />the proposed sanitary sewer line. Braun and his team were able to redesign, obtain WCCD <br />approval, and acquire new sanitary sewer manholes while incurring only a 43-calendar-day <br />delay. Fortunately, UNITED completed all relocation work months ahead of schedule, which <br />allowed us to recommend an alternative maintenance of traffic phasing plan that provided a <br />better end product and opened the roadway to traffic in 2021. <br />BEST <br />PLACES <br />t .
