Our Role

Engineering Design, Field Engineering, Project Management, Survey & Geomatics

CAP was responsible for the overall project engineering, from preliminary field engineering and design through to tendering and construction. This involved site investigations, preliminary survey, confirmation of surfacing requirements and all quantity calculations, including but not limited to asphalt concrete pavement, cold milling, signing, roadway lines and messages, milled rumble strips, barrier and delineators. The intersections and safety rest area improvements were modelled in AutoCAD Civil 3D and grading quantities determined. Right-of-way was acquired for the intersection improvements and agreements obtained for all utility crossings and the railway crossing in Boyle. A design report was created, which outlined all the project details, calculations, and estimates. Following review and approval by Alberta Transportation, a tender document with special provisions was developed utilizing standard templates. Cost estimates were prepared based on historical average unit prices.
