ADA accessibility, utility and road-widening improvements. The project scope included the preparation of construction plans for Biscayne Boulevard from NE 15th Street to NE 35th Terrace. The plans detail reconstruction of Biscayne Boulevard along with a full replacement of the existing drainage system. The existing drainage system was replaced with a deep well system for a majority of the project; however the southern portion of the project required the installation of a pump station as an injection well drainage system was necessary due to the low elevations in this section of the project. The project also includes the installation of new a decorative lighting system, landscaping and irrigation. All 8 signalized intersections with span wire systems were replaced with standard FDOT mast arms and the existing overhead truss structure was replaced with a smaller cantilever sign structure, Keith and Schnars landscape architects approached the design for the Biscayne Boulevard project to reflect the distinctive urban street character of the existing stores, businesses, and mixed-use residential. As desired by the City of Miami and the FDOT District 6, the stately and historic existing Royal Palms were preserved. They were supplemented with the addition of large Live Oaks that provide shade creating a linear plaza corridor. Sidewalk widths were increased to enhance the plaza concept, Under the trees and palms, large planted and irrigated spaces of shrubs and ground covers were designed in a "ribbon" pattern, Emphasis was on low maintenance, native and flowering plants; sod areas were eliminated. Additionally, conduit and junction boxes for future landscape lighting were designed for the project. Design Fees: $1,710,000 25. FIRMS FROM SECTION C INVOLVED WITH THIS PROJECT a.
