INDOT Small Purchase Projects

Our team is providing design engineering services for various INDOT small purchase projects aimed at enhancing transportation infrastructure across the state. These include:

State Route 1 over Cedar Creek Bridge Rehabilitation (Fort Wayne District) – This project will extend the life of the bridge via milling of the existing deck (utilizing hydro-demolition), partial and full-depth deck patching, and the placement of a new two-inch-thick rigid deck overlay. Improvements also include approach slab removal and replacement, guardrail upgrades, and minor sub-structure repairs.  Two-way traffic will be maintained on the bridge throughout construction to maintain traffic flow. 

I-465 Northbound Ramp at Kentucky Avenue Small Structure Rehabilitation (Greenfield District) – This project involves the rehabilitation of an existing 48-inch diameter corrugated metal pipe which coveys large flow volumes and is currently exhibiting signs of deterioration.  The proposed design solution includes the installation of a high-density polyethylene pipe lining to extend the life of the culvert. 

State Route 38 Small Structure Replacement (Crawfordsville District) – This project involves abandoning and filling a deteriorated 30-inch diameter corrugated metal pipe and replacing it with a 24-inch diameter storm sewer utilizing trenchless installation methods. Two-way traffic will be maintained throughout the duration of construction to maintain traffic flow. 

US 12 Southbound Ramp at Cline Avenue Small Structure Improvements (LaPorte District) – Our team was recently awarded this project which will involve either the rehabilitation or full replacement of a 35” x 24” corrugated metal pipe conveying significant flow volumes under the US 12 southbound ramp at Cline Avenue.

View Additional Project Highlights
  • From 2014 through 2020, our team served as the Corridor Construction Manager for the Illinois Tollway leading the delivery of more than 12 miles of new Illinois Route 390 Tollway, the first segment of the project. From 2020 to present day, our team serving as the Corridor Construction Manager for the Illinois Tollway has been leading the delivery of 6.5 miles of the new I-490 Tollway and three interchanges, the second segment of the project.
  • The overall limits of the Elgin O’Hare Western Access project extend along the new Illinois Route 390 Tollway from US 20/Lake Street to O’Hare Airport and along the new I-490 Tollway from the Central Tri-State (I-294) to the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway (I-90).
  • The vast majority of the tollways are being constructed on new alignments with:
    • More than 1,500,000-cubic-yards of imported embankment and more than 3,000,000-cubic-yards of overall earthwork
    • Nearly 60 lane miles of new concrete pavement
    • Construction of 52 new bridges
    • 12 rehabilitated/improved bridges
    • Installation of new fiber optic and tolling facilities
    • Installation of a variety of intelligent transportation system elements
    • Relocation of runway approach lighting on new bridges
    • New noise walls and retaining walls
    • New sign structures and dynamic message trusses
    • Numerous detention facilities
    • Extensive landscaping
  • Extensive electrical work was done to install intelligent transportation system equipment which transmits real-time traffic and roadway data to the Illinois Tollway and IDOT.
  • The western part of the corridor was converted from an expressway to a tollway; and required approval by both the Illinois General Assembly and Federal Highway Administration.
  • The project also included more than $250,000,000 of utility relocations as well as the relocation of 15 high-mast regional electrical transmission towers.
  • Due to limited space for conventional embankment processes, an innovative solution utilizing lime kiln dust was used to reduce moisture contents in the existing site material.
  • The modified soils were inspected and tested to assure lime application rates were met, optimum moisture content attained and required compaction was reached.
  • Coordination efforts between multiple contracts and adjacent businesses were required on this multi-year project that involved complex traffic staging through multiple construction seasons.
  • This project also includes the installation of O’Hare International Airport runway approach lighting bridges, which help guide commercial jets to safe airport landings.
