Building on a nearly 20-year relationship, our Infrastructure Practice team provided integrated services from design through construction to address critical needs at several locations.
On South Johnsburg Road, a structurally deficient bridge over Mill Creek posed growing concerns for travel and emergency access along a key community route. The team evaluated multiple replacement approaches before selecting a precast concrete structure that addressed ongoing erosion concerns, maintained hydraulic performance and improved roadway conditions in a cost-effective way. The new crossing restores safe, reliable travel and strengthens an important local connection.
Along Peaceful Valley Road in North Creek, a culvert in a rural corridor had begun showing signs of deterioration. Given the site’s importance as a district connector, the team planned construction sequencing to maintain mobility through temporary detours while completing the replacement.
The finished design improves drainage performance and stabilizes long-term roadway conditions.
Furthermore, through a Highway Design Term Assignment, planning and design were advanced across multiple roadways throughout the County.
The work focused on identifying infrastructure needs early and developing practical improvements that could move efficiently into future capital projects, helping reduce emergency repairs and unexpected disruptions.
This work moved forward on an accelerated timeframe, requiring close coordination across multiple projects, agencies and priorities. The result is a stronger, more resilient transportation network that helps residents travel safely, access services more reliably and stay connected across Warren County.
