The CH2M Hill / DRC Team developed a Draft EIR / EIS for the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority to extend the SR 710 Freeway to the I-210 Freeway. The project included a Regional Transportation Plan, conceptual development, and preliminary engineering of alternatives for freeway, light and heavy rail transit, commuter tunnels, arterial corridor studies, intersection improvements, and local street connections. DRC’s scope included identifying SR 710-impacted arterial highways; developing alternatives to continue into conceptual engineering; conceptual engineering of selected arterials to include alignment studies, plans/profile improvements, intersection configurations, and arterial/freeway connections. The conceptual engineering phase then led to preliminary engineering of the “best” alternatives. DRC supported tunnel design, tunnel QA/QC, and performed peer reviews of tunnel design. Our scope also included Transportation System Management and Transportation Demand Management alternatives and analyses of “Hot Spot” intersections. Deliverables included arterial strip maps, plan and profile drawings, intersection drawings, and Technical Memoranda.
