CCI technicians are experts in AutoCAD and MicroStation applications for transportation-related work.
City of Columbus - Department of Public Service
- Traffic Signal System Assessment and Strategic Plan
Sub-consultant to HNTB Companies
The Columbus Traffic Signal System (CTSS) monitors and operates more than 1000 signalized intersections,
managing the co-existence/operation of traffic surveillance cameras, emergency pre-emption and bus priority.
The Transportation Division desired to migrate to a new and open architecture infrastructure necessary to
implement future project within and to maintain system connectivity and interoperability. The desired outcome
was to move forward with future investments for the CTSS that would maximize the use of previous investments
based on the November 2005 Columbus Traffic Signal System Assessment and Strategic Plan. This effort included
designing a new fiber optic network.
The Assessment and Strategic Plan includes approximately 1,500 existing signals, existing control units,
and proposed traffic control signal units located in the City of Columbus, Franklin County, and adjacent
Ohio counties.
CCI's responsibilities included:
- Setup base plan utilizing GIS mapping. Entered existing traffic signal system control unit plan
record documentation information and data from field investigation notes/sketches to develop several
base drawings.
- Developed base plan drawing of proposed cable/conduit layouts from engineer's sketches.
- Created Title Sheet, Index Plan Sheet, and 200' scale plan drawings of 90 miles of interstate/freeway.
- Produced detail plan sheets, calculation sheets and various detail sheets as needed
- Accident Location GIS Mapping
Prime Consultant
CCI designed and coordinated a GIS geocoding project for 11,000 accident locations for this traffic safety study.
Central Ohio Transit Authority (COTA)
- Light Rail Preliminary Engineering
Sub-consultant to Parsons Brinckerhoff, Inc.
This preliminary engineering study evaluated various passenger light rail corridors for feasibility
and development cost considerations.
CCI provided onsite CAD services using Microstation with Descartes and MrSid to compile available mapping,
aerial imagery and GIS information. into project based files. In addition, CCI developed plan and profile
drawings for rail corridors and drafted detail drawings and schedules. CCI also provided onsite project
document administration to maintain project files, reports, and communications.
Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT)
- Florida SR 85 and 123 Flyover
Sub-consultant to Anderson Columbia Co., Inc.
This project resulted from an infusion of Federal Government stimulus money and required detailed tracking
and reporting.
CCI developed the initial Primavera 6 cost-loaded construction schedule based on critical path methodology
from limited Microsoft Project 2003 data. We then used interactive web meetings with the client to create a
detailed Work Breakdown Structure and organize the tasks therein; to refine the schedule logic; and to cost-load
the entire schedule.
The critical path is monitored and potential issues relayed to the client. The logic and durations within these
critical paths are continually addressed to ensure schedule remains robust.
CCI updates the schedule on a regular basis and provides custom detailed progress reports. Progress S-curves for
each phase indicate schedule percent complete and actual percent complete.
Schedule updates are used to inform all disciplines as to the status and progress of individual work packages,
and of critical path issues.
