Oregon City Main Street Reconstruction

This project involved extensive survey work in 2010 along Oregon City’s historic Main Street District from 5th to 15th street for the reconstruction and upgrading of sidewalks and street lighting. The project was later expanded to include mapping of existing street utilities for the design of future storm drainage and waterline improvements. The project included extensive research related to the establishment of existing right of way lines and property lines along the project corridor as well as detailed mapping of all storefront features throughout the length of the project. Funded, in part, through the American Recovery and Restoration Act, the project was required to be completed in a relatively short period of time with the survey work permitted only during non-business hours. Due to the short time frame, restricted hours of operation and the exacting data capture requirements, a variety of state of the art survey technologies were employed by the field crews to complete the surveying tasks on this project.
