The existing drainage system was replaced with a deep well system for a majority of the project.However, <br /> the southern portion of the project required the installation of a pump station as an injection well drainage system was <br />® necessary due to the low elevations in this section of the project.The project also included the installation of a new <br /> O decorative lighting system, landscaping, and irrigation.All eight (8) signalized intersections with span wire systems were <br /> replaced with standard Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT) mast arms and the existing overhead truss structure <br /> 0 was replaced with a smaller cantilever sign structure. <br /> O Our landscape architects designed the Biscayne Boulevard streetscape to reflect the distinctive urban street character of <br /> O the existing stores,businesses,and mixed-use residential. As desired by the City of Miami,FDOT,and District 6,the stately <br /> O and historic existing Royal Palms were preserved. They were supplemented with the addition of large Live Oaks that <br /> provided shade creating a linear plaza corridor. Sidewalk widths were also increased to enhance the plaza concept. Under <br />® the trees and palms, large planted and irrigated spaces of shrubs and ground covers were designed in a"ribbon" pattern, <br /> 0 with an emphasis on low maintenance, native and flowering plants. Sod areas were eliminated. Additionally, conduit and <br /> junction boxes for future landscape lighting were designed for the project. <br /> 0 <br /> 0 <br />• Client: FDOT District 6 <br /> O Contact:Jose Barrera, P.E. <br /> Phone: (305) 470-5560 <br /> I® Start Date:May 2004 <br />® Completion Date:April 2009 <br /> Fees:$1.5 million <br />• Construction Fees:$15.8 million (estimated) Construction to begin September 2009 <br /> 0 <br />®�. _ .. ;I/,LKEITH and SCHNAR.S,P.A. <br /> -- •�]tk� FIDRIofAi3/110CAt FIMt <br /> 40 RFQt2-04-02 PAGE 55 <br />
