<br />alleviate traffic congestion in and around airport facilities. Working closely with
<br />the Bureau of Engineering's LAMP team, Michael and the Harris team have
<br />reviewed dozens of large roadway realignments, storm drain improvements,
<br />sewer rehabilitations, and other LAWA infrastructure for compliance with LA
<br />BOE standards, design guidelines, and manuals. Through direct coordination
<br />with the Applicant, Harris is able to gain design insight and provide valuable
<br />feedback on submittals early in the process. This is a time -saving measure
