Tectonic performed construction inspection and construction surveying for a Bus Rapid Transit facility along 9.4 miles of active and inactive rail corridors. The facility provides an exclusive bus-only roadway, along with 12 busway stations, including shelter platforms and other amenities. The new busway helps to alleviate Interstate 84 congestion while enhancing alternative mode opportunities and expanding interregional transit service.

Tectonic provided inspection for the new bridges, bridge widening, drains, piles, MSE walls, landscaping, intersection grading, roadway, stations, traffic signals and general oversight of the contractor’s activities. Our NETTCP HMA Certified and ACI Concrete Inspectors are providing daily inspection for the largest portion of the Busway. Contract C was a $150 million contract to construct over 6 miles of the new 9-mile Busway.

This project also involved many areas of environmental concern (AOECs), Inland Wetland permitting, Flood Management Certificates, monitoring of Storm Water Pollution controls, and an IMS/Traffic Communication System.

Tectonic also provided survey quality control. A full-time surveyor was employed onsite to check layout of new improvements, maintain horizontal and vertical control through the duration of the project and perform as-builts after construction of improvements.
