Conceptual mainline and interchange alternatives and public meeting exhibits. Single Point Urban Interchanges were used to minimize impacts where corridor development was heavy. Large diamond interchanges that complied with MoDOT’s Access Management Policy were used in rural areas with less development. Extensive public involvement activities included public officials meetings in each community along the corridor, open-house public meetings in Independence and Oak Grove and advisory group meetings in Odessa. CAD Technician Route 340 (Olive Street) and I-270 Interchange, Creve Coeur, MO Missouri Department of Transportation $18M Duties included drafting final construction drawings for roadway/ramp typical sections and alignment plans, intersection signalization plans, MSE walls and bridge plans for reconstruction of an existing diamond interchange at one of the busiest locations in St. Louis County. A Single Point Urban Interchange (SPUI) was selected to maximize efficient traffic handling and minimize impacts to adjacent properties in this highly developed urban area. Route 340 was improved to provide three through traffic lanes and dual left turn lanes in each direction. URS designers worked with MoDOT and the City of Creve Coeur to develop an aesthetically pleasing design that included enhanced street lighting, bridges and retaining walls. Completed in 2005. CAD Technician Peoria-Macomb IL 336 Study Illinois Department of Transportation $180M: Phase 1 engineering study for a new 60 mile, 4-lane rural highway between Peoria and Macomb.

Final plans included ROW, roadway and interchange geometry, grading and drainage. A new grade separation at Oak Grove Road and new interchanges at Route PP and Route M were included. The freeway construction on new alignment involved 1.6 million cubic yards of excavation. The design team used Intergraph INROADS design software to evaluate dozens of vertical alignment options to optimize the grading, minimize overhaul and provide an earthwork balance.
CAD Technician U.S. Route 51 Design Report and Environmental Assessment, Washington, Jefferson & Marion Counties, IL Illinois Department of Transportation $20M Duties included preparation of preliminary plans and public meeting exhibits for four-lane expressway improvement to U. S. Route 51 from I-64 to the Centralia Couple. The 10-mile long project included interchange ramp modifications at I-64, a diamond interchange at Illinois Route 177 and a bridge over the Burlington Northern Railroad. The project scope included preparation of bridge condition reports, public meeting exhibits, Intersection Design Studies, Bridge TS&L drawings and a complex environmental assessment for this $20 million project. The project was fast-tracked by IDOT and was completed in 12 months from notice to proceed.
Project Specific Experience- Surface Transportation Local Roads CAD Technician Kingshighway Bridge, St. Louis, MO City of St. Louis BPS $21M URS was responsible the design of two replacement bridges based on the City of St. Louis and MoDOT design criteria. Duties included preparation of preliminary and final plans, and public meeting exhibits for replacement of the 100-year old structure. Plans called for demolition of the viaduct, between Shaw and Southwest Ave, and construction of a new a 140’ single-span plate girder bridge over UPRR and an 80’ single-span bridge over Daggett Avenue. The roadway and bridges will have three lanes in each direction and 6’ - 6” sidewalks on each side. The existing side roads leading to 3
Daggett Avenue and to the UPRR tracks will be eliminated. URS prepared public meeting exhibits and participated in public meetings, preparing maps, plats, environmental documentation, and other detailed information. CAD Technician Clark Lane, Columbia, MO: Responsible for generating drawings for the design of a two-lane roadway for the purpose of improving capacity, site distance and drainage. Improvements include two roundabouts, sidewalks, bike paths and low impact drainage improvements. CAD Technician Fee Fee Road, Maryland Heights, MO: Responsible for generating drawings for the design of a three-lane roadway for the purpose of improving capacity, site distance and drainage. Improvements include drainage, new box culvert, bridge modifications and signals. CAD Technician Multiple Sidewalk Projects, Columbia, MO: This project involved design and feasibility studies for twenty sidewalk projects within the city as part of the Non-Motorized transportation pilot program. Key aspects of the project were a pedestrian overpass, pedestrian signals, shared use paths, retaining walls, and drainage improvements. Responsibilities included drafting preliminary and final plans. CAD Technician Elm Point Road Railroad Crossing Study, St. Charles County, MO: This project involved study of three alternatives and the design of the selected alternatives to improve the Elm Point Crossing of the Norfolk southern tracks just north of St. Charles, Missouri. The crossing had been the site of multiple injury and fatal accidents, which were attributed to poor sight distances/angles at crossing, which had warning lights without gates. The selected alternative was to relocate the crossing to the west at the planned extension of Zumbehl Road and build a new 90-degree crossing with automatic gates and lights. Civil Technician Air Cargo Service Road, St. Louis, MO Lambert-St. Louis International Airport: This roadway project involved a two-phase design of the Air Cargo Service Road. The roadway links Lambert-St. Louis International Boulevard and McDonnell Boulevard and serves the Air cargo Facility and Postal Facility.
