WGI was selected by the City of Port St. Lucie to provide professional engineering design for the E-3 Canal Bank Stabilization project. The canal banks were failing and needed to be stabilized to prevent further loss and damage. Design Phase I included researching the existing soil design parameters, geotechnical analysis report, conceptual typical canal cross-sections for the recommended options, preliminary cost estimates, and meeting with City staff to select an improvement option. Design Phase II consists of finalizing the typical canal cross-section, preparation of construction plans, specifications, engineers cost estimate, bid specifications, permitting, utility coordination, and public information meetings. WGI will also perform underground utility location and tree vegetation removal assessments, regulatory permitting, outreach plan implementation, and assist with bidding and construction management of proposed phased improvements.
