The full reconstruction of Forest Avenue, bound between Hill Street and South University in downtown Ann Arbor, involved numerous Fishbeck engineering disciplines. Project challenges included tight design and construction schedules, a heavily-traveled corridor including vehicular and pedestrian trips, existing drainage problems, and limited ROW that generated grading issues.
Fishbeck provided design and survey for full-depth road construction, water main, ADA ramp upgrades, and drainage improvements. Fishbeck also performed a thorough traffic engineering review of the pedestrian and vehicular volumes, routes, and operations; creating robust maintaining traffic plans that facilitated and maintained access for all travel methods.
