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.

The Curry Ford Road improvement project is currently under construction, and will ultimately provide additional roadway capacity for motorists in east Orange County. This will be accomplished with 2.5 miles of widening from a 2-lane rural roadway to a 4-lane divided urban roadway.  Lochrane provided a number of services including comprehensive survey services, preliminary engineering and preparation of complete construction documents. Lochrane was able to serve the client by obtaining all environmental permits necessary to begin construction. Wetland impacts were mitigated using enhancement of existing wetlands in Hal Scott Preserve. This project is unique because it involved the widening of the bridge over the Azalea Park Outfall Canal.
