Hancock Engineering provided Design and Construction Engineering Services for this annual improvements project. The improvements consisted of two miles of concrete alley reconstruction, approximately one mile of storm sewer, and areas of asphalt roadway repair.
Several of the newly constructed alleys were within business districts. As part of our services, we introduced ourselves to over 50 businesses flanking the alleys. We coordinated refuse collection, parking passes, coordination of the Village’s “Garage Apron Replacement Program” (GARP) and accommodated as many businesses’ schedules as possible.
Several of the alleys had utility conflicts which we worked proactively with Nicor and ComEd to have their infrastructure relocated prior to the start of our construction.
The project was partially funded with CDBG grants, so all requirements required of this funding were followed.
Several of the alleys flanked schools and churches. We made sure to continually keep all stakeholders up to date.
