Description

The Pompano Beach Northwest Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) wanted to enhance the area along Martin Luther King Boulevard between I-95 and Dixie Highway. This area was part of the CRA's overall master plan known as the "Downtown Pompano Connectivity Plan." The improvements included multi-modal friendly streetscape with landscape/hardscape beautification features along MLK Boulevard, including special pavement materials, new pedestrian level and roadway decorative lighting, streetscape furnishings, utility adjustments (including underground overhead FPL/Comcast/AT&T lines), and overall drainage, utility and roadway improvements. KEITH was awarded this project as the Prime Consultant and assembled a multi-disciplinary team to complete all design aspects. KEITH was responsible for the overall team management, engineering, permitting, planning, surveying, public consensus and construction management. After the design was complete, the CRA split the project into two construction phases. Phase 1 consisted of Dixie Highway to NW 6th Avenue and Phase 2 was I-95 to NW 6th Avenue. Phase 2 was fully designed and permitted by KEITH and moved into construction.
