We take pride in our work!

We hold valuable years of proven experience working on projects in transportation design, site development engineering and surveying. We take the very best ideas from our clients and merge them with industry expertise and environmental concern to create projects that are unparalleled. 

Some of the significant projects we've worked on recently include:

• SunRail: Lochrane Engineering is very involved with the progression of the SunRail Commuter Rail Corridor within Central Florida. This 61 mile project runs through the heart of Central Florida from Poinciana to Deland and consists of converting the existing railroad corridor into a Commuter Rail facility to help alleviate traffic congestion. Since 2003 Lochrane has been working on this project providing Professional Surveying and Mapping. In 2005, Lochrane became the LEAD SURVEYOR on the Initial Operating System (IOS) to coordinate eight (8) other survey firms involved in this effort. Lochrane has worked closely with the Florida Department of Transportation, AECOM as the Prime Engineering firm, and Shutts and Bowen, attorneys for the project. Lochrane also performed full boundary surveys, topographic surveys and underground utility location for the project and provided continuous coordination with all the team members, the FDOT, their legal team and the CSXT. The field work activities were overseen by Lochrane to ensure that full CSXR safety compliance was in place and Lochrane also coordinated all the review meetings of the survey work including the final boundary surveys being completed for the acquisition of the corridor by the FDOT from CSXT. In addition, Lochrane handled Utility Coordination for the Initial Operating Segment, North and South Segments and for the station sites. This has involved coordination between multiple utilities companies, municipalities, FDOT District 5, consultants and sub-consultants. Now Lochrane is part of the Archer Western/Railworks team, as part of the team with Parsons Transportation Group and Transystems for the FDOT District 5 Design-Build Project that covers the first 32 miles of corridor between Fort Florida Road and Sand Lake Road. Once again, Lochrane will be providing Surveying and Mapping as well as Utility Coordination services on this first phase of SunRail. More detailed information on the project can be found online at www.sunrail.com.

• Wekiva Parkway Line and Grade, Lake and Seminole Counties, FDOT District 5: Wekiva Parkway (SR 429) will be a new limited access expressway approximately 21 mainline miles long. Lochrane is providing Utility Coordination on the team for this project that involves line and grade for two sections of the larger SR 429 (Wekiva Parkway) project. These sections are from West of Old McDonald Road to Seminole County Line and from Lake County Line to East of Rinehart Road.

• NW 22^nd Street Reconstruction, City of Gainesville: This project, on which Lochrane is providing the civil engineering services, involves the milling and resurfacing of NW 22nd Street between SR 26 (West University Avenue) and NW 8th Avenue. The project also involves milling, resurfacing, and hardscape improvements to NW 5th Avenue between NW 22nd Street and NW 20th Street. These improvements will be consistent with the standards already established for the corridor by the CRA. Lochrane will also investigate as a part of this project an alternative outfall down NW 1st Avenue to alleviate flooding concerns at the NW 22nd Street/SR 26 intersection. Lochrane is also providing full design surveys for the project including utility designations and soft-dig verifications at potential conflict points. This project is an assignment under a Professional Engineering Design Services Contract with the City.

• Miscellaneous Sidewalk Projects, FDOT District 2: The Lochrane Transportation Division is providing minor highway design and surveying and mapping services on five sidewalk projects located in Alachua, Columbia and Union Counties. These include: NE 19th Place from NE 9th Street to NE 15th Street, Alachua County; SR 24/SW Archer from SW 169th to SW 73^rd, Alachua County; SW Kuhn Rd/SW Bascom Norris Dr from SW McFarlane Ave to SW Sisters Welcome Rd, Columbia County; SR 1st Street from Lake Street to SW 4^th Avenue in Lake Butler, Union County; and SE 5th Ave/Epperson from SR 100 to SR 121 in Lake Butler, Union Count. 

• Winter Garden Village at Fowler Groves: A landmark project for Lochrane and the City of Winter Garden, Lochrane handled the land development on this project, which is an open-air shopping center with a residential component, providing 1,150,000 square feet of commercial space and 450 multifamily residential units. 

• Innovation Way Extension from SR 528 to Avalon Park Boulevard: A distance of approximately 4.81 miles, this project involves highway design to add a 4-lane urban roadway to enhance the public transportation network and provide safe and efficient flow of vehicular traffic within the East Orange County area.
