Summary
Kaskaskia Engineering Group, LLC (KEG) provided survey, civil design, traffic engineering, and land development services for the new Rainstorm Express Car Wash located in the northwest quadrant of the intersection of Frank Scott Parkway (Thouvenot Lane) and Hartman Lane in O’Fallon, St. Clair County, Illinois. The proposed improvements also involved the widening of Hartman Lane north of its intersection with Thouvenot. The existing asphalt shoulder and concrete curb and gutter were removed in order to widen the roadway pavement to allow for two southbound through lanes. Concrete curb and gutter and asphalt shoulder were reinstalled along the new edge of pavement in areas where they appeared in the existing condition.
Project
KEG managed the survey services, including the preparation of preliminary and final plats for City review; performed parcel evaluation and coordinated with Caseville Township Sewer District and additional utilities; prepared and submitted the re-zoning application on behalf of the client; prepared the planned use submittal; and performed a traffic study, including the preparation of a Traffic Impact Study (TIS). In support of the TIS, the KEG team completed traffic counting for peak traffic volume times, performed auxiliary turn lane analyses, and prepared an intersection capacity analyses for the intersection of Hartman and Thouvenot.
KEG also assisted the client with the preparation of construction plans including site, grading, utility, erosion and sediment control, lighting, and details along with project specifications. Site plans included site dimensions, parking spaces, entrance roadways, sidewalks, and dimensions as necessary to layout the construction by traditional means. The utility plan included storm sewer, sanitary sewer, water main, and electrical extension to within 5’ of the buildings. KEG coordinated the design services for pavement sections, concrete curbs, sidewalks, utilities, erosion and sediment control, and stormwater management.
Finally, KEG provided construction engineering services, which included the review of submittals and change orders, as well as punch-list items and on-site field inspection.
