CGA <br />engineering staff also creates, review, and update the codes, standards and ordinances <br />for a number of municipalities. In addition, we perform engineering site plan and <br />engineering construction permit reviews for Dania Beach, West Park, and Weston. <br />Streetscapes <br />CGA's roadway design experience ranges from small, two -lane <br />residential roadways to large multi -lane highways and interstates. We <br />work with the FDOT on re- grading, striping, drainage improvements, <br />implementation of ADA requirements, turn -lane additions, widening, <br />and median modifications, and public information /participation. <br />We have designed streetscape improvements with a particular <br />attention to pedestrian safety for such municipalities as the Cities of <br />Doral and Weston, and the Town of Bay Harbor Islands. <br />In additions, we have designed and permitted parking improvements such as the Dania Beach Park N Go, <br />and the parking fields for Pembroke Lakes Square, Pembroke Gardens. Specifically, in terms of <br />roadway /streetscape related services we include: <br />• Roadway Engineering Design & Permitting <br />ti • Corridor Studies <br />• Intergovernmental Agency Coordination <br />• Roadway Beautification Projects <br />• Conceptual Engineering & Design <br />Alternatives Analysis <br />1 • Roadway Drainage Design & Permitting <br />• Roadway Lighting Design <br />• Parking Lot Design <br />• Design of Traffic Calming Measures <br />• Pavement Marking & Signage <br />• Parking Supply & Demand Analysis <br />• Emergency Evacuation Studies & Planning <br />• Major Roadway Improvements Design & <br />Permitting <br />• Utility Relocation Design & Coordination <br />• Neighborhood Improvement Projects <br />• Milling & resurfacing projects <br />SURVEYING <br />The Surveying and Mapping Division of CGA utilizes the latest in cutting edge technology when preparing <br />surveys including GPS equipment, automated data collection, Laser Scanners, Underground utility <br />detection technologies and a Vacuum /Slurry subsurface excavation system called the VaXcavator that <br />exposes existing underground utilities. Operated by one of the field survey crews, it allows us to obtain <br />sub - surface horizontal and vertical locations required for design, while realizing cost and timesavings for <br />our clients. Additionally, our state -of- the -art Hypack software with Odom sounder allows us to offer <br />hydrographic surveying services. By integrating with our Trimble GPS units, the equipment creates a three - <br />dimensional model of the water body being surveyed and significant savings for our clients. <br />Recognizing the value to our clients, CGA was among the first firms in Florida to acquire the 3D Laser <br />ScanStation. Our Surveying and Mapping staff can now scan virtually anything in half the time of <br />conventional methods, with a level of detail not available before. The ScanStation can take a virtual, detailed <br />snapshot of a site including ceilings, undersides of bridges, elevated pipe racks, tall facades, columns and <br />towers. Areas that were previously difficult to access. It collects millions of data points of all items in a 3600 <br />horizontal and 270° vertical field of view, allowing a full field of view.
