Plantation Oaks Boulevard Emergency Culvert Repair

WGI was on the Design-Build team for this $1.14M project for FDOT District 2. This was an emergency project to replace a triple 10’ x 6’ box culvert under Plantation Oaks Boulevard over the North Fork of Double Branch. The existing CBC had severe reinforcing failure and required the roadway and sidewalk to be closed for safety reasons, causing a significant detour to the community. The design, permitting (St. Johns River Water Management District, Army Corps of Engineers, and Jacksonville Electric Authority), and construction were completed 15 days ahead of the FDOT-required 60-day timeframe, earning a $200,000 bonus. WGI’s services included survey, roadway, drainage, structural, signing and marking, temporary traffic control, lighting, utility coordination, water main, permitting, and post design services.

This project was the recipient of the Merit Award in the Transportation-Structure category for the Design-Build Awards from the DBIA Florida Region.
