Project Description:
The SR-900 Improvements for Talus, almost one mile in length, represented the umbilical cord for that new community. The improvements replaced an aged, two-lane roadway with a three-lane+ improvement. The extra-wide shoulder expansions permit pre-built conversions into more traveled lanes. The right of way to right of way improvements required surgical assessment of existing slope and wetland constraints. Construction of an integral soldier pile wall and Jersey barrier minimized wetland intrusion along the easterly limits of construction. Beneath the roadway, utility extensions competed for real estate. The Talus development is served by two, independent, water systems, three separate storm drainage systems, an extension of the Metro sanitary sewer system; and, redundant power, telephone and fiber optics facilities requiring close coordination with multiple jurisdictions.
