The City of Lake Worth Beach received Federal Local Agency Program (LAP) funding to improve sections of roadway in the Lake Worth Park of Commerce – Phase 2. WGI was requested to perform civil engineering, environmental, and signal design services for portions of the project. The scope of WGI’s services also includes Florida Department of Transportation LAP coordination and public outreach as a requirement of the LAP process.

WGI performed a water and sewer utility design, drainage design, and signal warrant analysis for the intersection of 7th Avenue North and Boutwell Road and designed roadway infrastructure improvements within the 7th Avenue North R/W from Boutwell Road east to the Fitch Ditch. The environmental department will perform a Type I Categorical Exclusion for the entirety of the LAP project and coordinate with SHPO for any national historical registered properties.

Project Highlights:

• This project is one example of how WGI obtained the environmental approvals needed to secure Local Agency Program (LAP) funding for projects that have state or other funding sources.
