Las Olas Boulevard Improvements Construction Management at Risk
Miller Legg provided civil engineering, landscape architecture, survey and constructability preconstruction phase services and document review to Skanska USA Building Inc. for the $50 million Las Olas Boulevard Improvements project in Fort Lauderdale. The project was a partnership between the City of Fort Lauderdale and the Beach Community Redevelopment Agency (CRA) that will create a new gateway to Fort Lauderdale’s Beaches.
To create a more pedestrian oriented open space and corridor, the project included roadway improvements, a 1,200 space parking garage, a 1-acre oceanfront park and a ½-mile Intracoastal waterfront pedestrian promenade. Miller Legg’s services included project planning, constructability reviews, attending design and coordination meetings, cost estimating and value engineering. Assistance with the development of maintenance of traffic (MOT) plans for construction phasing, including signing and pavement marking improvements, was also part of the scope. This Improvements Construction Management at Risk (CM@R) project was a key component of the Central Beach Master Plan and City of Fort Lauderdale’s 2035 Vision.
