<br />Project Experience
<br />FDOT District 4, Bridges of the Isles & Sunrise Key Bridge Replacements- SR 842/Las Olas
<br />Project improvements include demolishing and replacing the bridges at Royal Palm Drive, Nurmi
<br />Drive, Fiesta Way, and Isle of Venice and the bridge at Sunrise Key Boulevard, preserving and
<br />reusing the historic bridge urns and pedestals on the Las Olas Isles bridges, installing recessed
<br />low-level lighting similar to the existing lighting, widening the traffic lanes on the Las Olas Isles
<br />bridges to 10 feet and widening the sidewalks to 6 feet, and widening the traffic lanes on the
<br />Sunrise Key Boulevard bridge to 11 feet and widening the sidewalk to 7 feet. MGV was
<br />responsible for providing up to eleven (11) Utility Locates. Each locate (test hole) included
<br />horizontal coordinates, depth of cover, elevation, size, type, material, and general direction of
<br />each utility.

<br />FDOT District 4, SR 9 (I-95) Express Lanes Phase 3C Design-Build
<br />This project is Phase 3C of the Department's overall Phase 3 implementation of Express Lanes
<br />along the I-95 Corridor within Broward and Palm Beach Counties. "95 Express" is a Limited
<br />Access Express Lane facility that runs adjacent to the I-95 General Use Lanes. The construction
<br />limits extend from south of Hollywood Boulevard at I-95 milepost 1.773 to south of Broward
<br />Boulevard at I-95 milepost 10.757 in Broward County for a total distance of approximately 9 miles
<br />along I-95. The Project also includes improvements along I-595 from west of SR-7 at milepost
<br />8.515 to I-95 at milepost 10.545 for a total distance of approximately 2 miles, direct connections
<br />between northbound and southbound 95 Express Lanes and I-595 to and from the west, and the
<br />painting of 17 existing steel bridges within the I-95/SR 84 and I-95/I-595 Interchanges. MGV is
<br />responsible for providing survey and mapping services, including: the establishment of horizontal
<br />(NAD 83/90) and vertical control (NAVD 88) networks, topographic/DTM (3D) survey, bridge
<br />surveys which include a complete structural control survey of the bridge deck and bottom,
<br />supplemental bridge surveys as needed, geotechnical support, and work zone safety.
<br />
<br />Design Build Criteria Package for the Dadeland South Intermodal Station Project
<br />MGV was responsible for the establishment of horizontal (NAD 83/90) and vertical control (NAVD 88) networks. The survey baseline and
<br />right of way were established along the South-Dade Transitway and all intersecting side streets. Topographic and DTM Survey was
<br />performed from right of way to right of way along the project limits and all intersecting side-streets. Check cross sections were performed.
<br />A drainage survey was performed within the project limits, and identified the type of structure, rim elevation, pipe invert elevation, pipe
<br />materials, direction, size, and condition. Survey consisting of field locations of section corners, 1/4-section corners, and fractional corners
<br />as well as block closures, monument lines, etc., was performed in order to establish the right of way lines along all intersecting side-
<br />streets. Work zone safety was provided, and PNC sheets were prepared. A bridge survey was also performed on the Northbound
<br />entrance to SR 826 over the existing transit corridor and the Metrorail bridges over Datran Drive. MGV also provided Utility Designates
<br />(Horizontal Mapping) throughout the project limits. Utility scans were performed within a 5’ radius of each proposed boring location,
<br />including one exploratory test hole completed at the approximate boring location as well as one test hole on each utility detected within
<br />5’ radius. A total back of 20 test holes was performed in the following boring locations: Borings for bridge 6 (B-1 to B-6), Borings for walls
<br />2 (WB-1 and WB-2), and Percolation Tests 2 (P-1 and P-2).
