The neighborhood improvements for this substantial infrastructure improvement project included 30,000 linear feet of water main replacement, moving rear yard services and meters to front yards, 3,200 linear feet of stormwater system upgrades, pavement reconstruction and overlay, roadside swales, driveway aprons, and sidewalks over a 50-block residential neighborhood covering 193 acres. A critical 6,500 linear feet sanitary sewer force main connection was also designed to connect the City’s sanitary sewer system across the FEC Railroad and Intracoastal Waterway to the barrier island. Installation of the 6-inch to 10-inch diameter water and force main utilized a combination of open cut, horizontal directional drill, and pipe bursting construction methods. WGI was able to quickly and accurately map existing features through Terrestrial Mobile LiDAR (TML). TML allowed surveyors to not trespass on private property and to allow pits to move as needed due to the entire corridor being a part of the scan data. The accuracy and flexibility of the TML approach reduced costs and schedule of the survey by eliminating errors and by obtaining a full capture of the area.
