Holden Avenue Project Location
Holden Avenue Project Location
Holden Avenue from John Young Parkway to Orange Blossom Trail
Orange County, Florida

The Holden Avenue project started in 2004, and will provide additional east-west capacity for the motorists of Orange County. This will be accomplished through the extension of Holden Avenue from Texas Avenue to John Young Parkway and widening from 2-lanes to a 4-lane divided urban roadway from Texas Avenue to Orange Blossom Trail. Lochrane was able to provide survey services and preparation of complete construction and right-of-way documents. At completion, the project will produce 1.24 miles of 4-lane divided urban roadway. Holden Avenue is expected to be completed in early 2007.

SR 10 from McDuff Ave to Stockton St
Jacksonville, Florida

SR10 Before Construction
SR10 Before Construction

SR 10 milling and resurfacing began in February of 2003 and will provide a mile long stretch of four-lane capacity roadway that is ADA compliant with business and resident access.  Lochrane facilitated various services including design, utility coordination, survey and post design services. During the early stages of design, concrete pavement was determined to be beneath the asphalt. The project evolved into full reconstruction to remove the concrete pavement. Full storm water treatment and facilities became necessary and permitting through the St. Johns River Water Management District. Lochrane was able to meet the needs of the client by maintaining close communication with the City of Jacksonville, FDOT Planning Office, and other parties. This project is expected to be completed in January of 2007.


Innovation Way Extension from the Beach Line to Avalon Park Blvd.
East Orange County, Florida

The Innovation Way Extension was started in 1999 and will provide another north-south roadway corridor for motorists in East Orange County. Additionally, it will provide access for the development of the International Corporate Park (ICP). This project is a public/private partnership between Orange County and ICP that will ultimately produce 4.81 miles of 4-lane urban divided roadway. Lochrane provided survey services, preparation of complete construction documents, project permitting, mitigation, and all the right-of-way required for the project. Extensive environmental permitting was required including wetland mitigation, as well as mitigation for the presence of the red-cockaded woodpecker and gopher tortoise. Plans for the Innovation Way Extension were completed in July 2003. Orange County was awarded a contract for construction of the project in August 2006, and construction should begin soon.


Lake Drive from Seminole Blvd to Tuskawilla Rd
Seminone County, Florida

Lake Drive is a project that started in 1995, and will allow for additional roadway capacity for motorists of Seminole County.  Lochrane provided survey services,  preliminary engineering and preparation of complete construction documents. The preliminary engineering included alternative alignments. The preferred alignment included re-alignment through a major landowner's property that offered donation of the right-of-way. The end result will be 2.7 miles of 4-lane divided urban roadway. Lochrane was able to please the client by obtaining all the necessary environmental permits to allow for construction of project by Seminole County. The Lake Drive Improvement Project is currently under construction by Seminole County.


SR 26A/SR 26 Reconstruction
Gainesville, Florida

SR26A  Reconstruction SR 26A / SR 26 reconstruction, widening and rehabilitation began in July of 1999. It serves a variety of functions including the facilitation of smooth operation and flow of traffic along the corridor as well as providing a Western Gateway entrance to City of Gainesville. It was critical to maintain existing trees and minimize impacts to businesses and residents during construction.  Lochrane provided design, public involvement, survey and post design services. The end result was a stretch of roadway 2.6 miles in length.  Several obstacles were avoided such as the need for critical temporary sheet piling, fast turnaround response to field condition changes, ADA compliancy issues relating to existing conditions, field changes to proposed TCP to accommodate real-time conditions, and the addressing of issues related to businesses and residents along the corridor. This project was completed in December of 2006.


SR 30 from SR 173 to SR 295
Pensacola, Florida

SR207 from I-95 to US-1

St. Augustine, Florida

SR 207 new construction began in August of 1989, and established a four-lane (future six-lane) capacity roadway that was ADA compliant with business and resident access taken into consideration. The end result was 5.3 miles in length. Lochrane provided design, utility coordination, public involvement, survey and post design services. Lochrane was able to overcome various obstacles during this project such as coordination with the CSX Railroad crossing, redesign of storm water ponds, deep outfall 72" pipe down county dirt road with narrow right of way, floodplains, environmental issues, and high water table. Due to existing conditions, the east end of the project storm water was permitted to directly discharge into the Matanza River and was compensated for throughout the other portions of the project.  This project was completed in August of 1999.
