Roadway Reconstruction Program - Town of Vernon, CT

The Town of Vernon retained Cardinal for their engineering design services related to the reconstruction of 12 Miles of urban and rural collector streets. Included in this project was the design for the replacement of two bridges. The streets had severely deteriorated pavement, inadequate drainage and in many areas substandard roadway geometry and other safety deficiencies.

Traffic safety improvements included the realignment of roadways both horizontally and vertically to meet sight distance requirements. Safety improvements also included the installation of pedestrian ramps and crosswalk striping at all intersections. Both traffic and traffic calming studies were conducted on heavily traveled streets.

Cardinal implemented a project wide Pavement Analysis Program. As a result of this program it was determined that full depth pavement reconstruction was necessary. Pavement reclamation was utilized on many streets. Nine miles of storm sewers and several miles of underdrains were construction to improve roadway drainage while minimizing the environmental impacts and addressing the Phase II NPEDS requirements.

Cardinal Engineering is currently providing full-time resident engineering services and contract administration services for this roadway reconstruction program.
