PROJECT NAME: Keck Ridge/Scott Troy Road Turn Lanes
CLIENT: Keck Land Trust
JURISDICTION: City of O’Fallon and St. Clair County
LOCATION: O’Fallon, St. Clair County, Illinois
CONSTRUCTION COST: $230,000 (Est.)

PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Keck Land Trust employed our firm to prepare the
Intersection Design Study (IDS) and Construction Plans and Specifications for
the intersection of a new subdivision entry roadway (Keck Ridge Drive)
intersecting an existing rural county highway (Scott-Troy Road). All phases of
the project were subject to St. Clair County Department of Roads and Bridges
review for compliance with IDOT standard policies and procedures. The Traffic
Study was completed using the Trip Generation Manual to develop traffic
forecasts. The IDS analysis was completed using Highway Capacity Software (HCS)
and IDOT design policies. Turning movements and corner radii were developed
using AUTOTURN software for the appropriate design vehicle, and the intersection
sight distance was checked. The project included the addition of a left-turn
lane on Scott-Troy Road. The construction scope included asphalt widening and
paving, asphalt shoulders, ditching, drainage culverts, paint pavement markings
and driveway removal and replacement.
