STREET IMPROVEMENTS

Sunset Strip Beautification Project

BergCM provided construction management and public outreach for this high-profile project in a high-volume, congested commuter corridor located between the west City limit and the east City limit on Sunset Blvd in the City of West Hollywood. Project work included replacement/resurfacing of 1.65 miles of existing concrete roadway with asphalt rubber hot mix (AHRM) overlay, traffic signal system upgrades, replacement of broken and damaged sidewalks, curbs, gutters, driveways and wheelchair curb ADA ramps, landscaped medians, tree relocations and installations, sidewalk widening and pedestrian enhancements as well as some storm drain and catch basin work. In addition to reconfiguration of signals and turn-lanes along Sunset Blvd., work involved coordination and scheduling with multiple utilities and their separate contractors. This fast-track (six-month) project was constrained by restricted work windows due to the number of businesses and restaurants in the vicinity, and required extensive traffic control and public relations. The federally-funded ARRA project required impeccable documentation for maximum reimbursement and compliance.
