Marco Island Subsurface Utility
Our utility mapping team provided subsurface utility engineering (SUE) services for Tindale-Oliver & Associates, Inc. for the widening of 2.5 miles of North Collier Boulevard, the main artery onto Marco Island. A trench was excavated from the edge of the pavement to the right of way every 100 feet throughout this 2.5 mile job to ensure all underground utilities were accurately located. Our team mapped these utilities using AutoCAD for planning and design purposes.
Montgomery Watson – Cape Coral
Our surveying and mapping group teamed with Montgomery Watson utility engineers to provide surveying and subsurface utility engineering (SUE) services for the City of Cape Coral?s utility plant expansion program. The SUE services included locating underground utilities at waste water treatment and reverse osmosis plants, along road rights of way, and under the pavement of major roads and intersections. The project?s final deliverables included field notes, CADD drawings, photographs, and markings of the utilities in the field for the contractors use.
Bonita Springs Utilities
Our utility mapping team began providing a variety of SUE services to Bonita Springs Utilities (BSU) in 2001. This included the excavation and location of a water line beneath 12 feet of compacted fill in the I-75 median. The majority of SUE work performed for BSU is for utility relocation due to road widening projects. The accuracy of the utility maps allows the engineers to design and build with little or no conflicts to existing utilities, saving time and money.
Florida Power and Light Company ? Orange River Substation
Florida Power and Light Company (FPL) teamed with our surveying and mapping group for many of their surveying and utility mapping projects. The largest project to date was their 56 mile transmission line from the Orange River Substation in Lee County to the Golden Gate Substation in Collier County. The transmission line would provide new power distribution with more than 500 new power poles along the planned route. To ensure existing underground utilities would not conflict with the placement of the large concrete transmission poles, our utility mapping team performed subsurface utility engineering and soft dig activities around selected pole sites. AutoCAD sketches of each site were provided to FPL engineers for design evaluation.
