关于 the Project
的5美元.7 million dollar construction project involved reconstructing a 2 mile urban segment of 威斯康辛州 Avenue (STH 96) from STH 47 to CTH E in the City of Appleton, 威斯康辛州.
The corridor has 28 intersections, over 140 driveway openings, and had a crash rate that was 2.5 times higher than the statewide average. Reconstruction of this corridor required an extraordinary level of planning and construction effort to deliver and minimize the impact on the 125+ businesses within the project limits. The design expanded the roadway to a consistent four-lane cross section with left turn lane additions and intersection geometric improvements throughout the corridor.
On-street parking was generally eliminated; however indent parking was designed along a three-block area. The project incorporated a mid-block pedestrian hybrid beacon (HAWK), which was one of the first installations in the State of 威斯康辛州.
The pavement design consisted of doweled JPCP 8.5-inch over 6-inch base aggregate dense. Construction began in late March of 2011. Completing the multi-staged project in one construction season required higher than normal production rates and work efforts including weekends and scheduling of concurrent controlling operations. The project utilized 3 stages of construction that included allowing local traffic into the work zone to access businesses.
The traffic section of the special provisions detailed 22 different intersection staging requirements and special access requirements for 26 commercial properties. Vinton Construction, developed a detailed project construction schedule and provided weekly schedule updates which were posted to a project website. The website provided a constant flow of information, including a Twitter feed to alert followers when new information was posted.
A true partnership was forged by WisDOT, OMNNI Associates, the City of Appleton and Vinton Construction. Every aspect of the project from conception to completion was carefully thought out, 良好的执行力, and a huge success.
The City of Appleton has a revitalized corridor which will spur business redevelopment for many years to come thanks to the commitment made by all parties involved and the use of concrete pavement.
Noteworthy Project Details
- During design of the project, many traffic control options were considered for the heavily used mid-block crossing at Appleton Papers. After extensive research the decision was made to install a pedestrian hybrid beacon (HAWK). This was one of the first installations in the State of 威斯康辛州
- Traffic Management section was very unique in that it broke the 2-mile project up into 3 segments, creating 3 individual smaller urban construction projects. This staging was critical for the accessibility to businesses within the construction.
- Vinton utilized a two stage mobile crusher to recycle old concrete pavements for use as roadway base. This process eliminated hundreds of truck trips that would have been required to haul away the old concrete and haul in new base aggregate which reduced carbon dioxide emissions, fuel consumption and saved on the wear and tear on the local roads.
- Vinton Construction utilized a John Deere 700 dozer equipped with a Leica GPS system to grade the project. This was the first time Vinton had utilized GPS grading on a dozer in an urban setting.
