<br />PROJECT EXPERIENCE
<br />+ City of West Hollywood Melrose Avenue
<br />Complete Street Project, CA: Project manager
<br />during a geotechnical investigation for the proposed
<br />construction of a complete street along Melrose
<br />Avenue as part of the West Hollywood Design District
<br />Master Plan. The project will the reconfiguration of
<br />the Melrose Avenue and San Vicente Boulevard
<br />intersection to shorten crossing distances and improve
<br />traffic signal operations, and the reconfiguration
<br />of the Melrose Avenue and La Cienega Boulevard
<br />to include dual left turn lanes. Other features will
<br />include construction of widened sidewalks, sidewalk
<br />bulb -out curb extensions with directional pedestrian
<br />access ramps at crosswalks, roadway paving
<br />with sharrow bicycle route markings, and drought
<br />tolerant groundcover. Storm water features including
<br />infiltration basins and pervious gutters in compliance
<br />with NPDES/MS 4 permit will be incorporated.
<br />+ LA Metro 1-606 and SR-91 Interchange Project,
<br />Santa Fe Springs, CA: Senior engineer during a
<br />geotechnical investigation for the Project Approval
<br />and Environmental Documentation (PA/ED) phase of
<br />the proposed $120 million project. The improvements
<br />will include additional freeway mainline capacity
<br />leading to westbound SR-91 connector ramp to the
<br />northbound and southbound 1-605, improvements to
<br />freeway westbound entrance and exit ramps on SR-
<br />91, and operational improvements for the northbound
<br />1-605 at Alondra Boulevard off -ramp. Associated
<br />improvements are also anticipated on the arterial
<br />streets in the vicinity of the freeway ramp intersections.
