Civil Engineering

Huitt-Zollars, as a subconsultant to MIG Inc, developed this 30-acre hillside site from open space into a regional park facility with 19 acres of developed park and 11 acres of hillside open space. 

Huitt-Zollars' Ontario office provided civil engineering services on this project.

Huitt-Zollars provided civil engineering design services for this 164-acre residential subdivision. The scope of services included extension of a 16-foot water main, design of water, sanitary sewer and storm sewer, and paving as well as subdivision layout.

FM 1281 (known locally as Horizon Boulevard) is a major Texas Department of Transportation Highway for Horizon City, Texas. The highly traveled boulevard had limited sidewalks that were not well-connected, creating safety concerns for pedestrians and bicyclists. The City Council of Horizon City had a desire to install a sidewalk along Horizon Boulevard to provide connectivity to schools, parks, and commercial areas as part of their Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Program, while also delivering a safe place for residents to walk or bicycle.

Huitt-Zollars provided the civil engineering for the design for The Settlement, a 396-unit, multi-family community on around 20 acres in Kyle, Texas. Our scope of work included research of the entitlements for this site; preparation of a grading plan, parking and striping plan, water and wastewater utility plan; design of the drainage system and a detention pond, and preparation and processing of the construction applications through the City of Kyle. We also prepared a Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan in accordance with TCEQ requirements.  

Huitt-Zollars designed the roadway mobility and safety improvements for a 1.9-mile stretch of CR 266 (Old Bastrop Highway) between Francis Harris Lane and Centerpoint Drive in San Marcos, Texas. The project entailed widening of (two 12-foot lanes, addition of ten-foot shoulders, and improvements/realignments at selected intersections.

This 16-hectare master plan is the Central Commercial District to the Airport Free Trade Zone. It features 197,000-square-miles of international Class 5A offices, 21,500-square-miles of above-grade retail and restaurant with a wavy green roof, 36,000-square-miles of above-grade retail and a restaurant with a green roof park, 88,000-square-miles of commercial serviced apartments, and a 76,000-square-miles park and connection to the lakefront.

Huitt-Zollars was selected as the prime design firm to provide final civil, structural, and architectural design and post-design construction services as part of a design-build team for the downtown segment of the Light Rail Transit (LRT) project. The project includes six separate LRT station platforms. Huitt-Zollars' responsibilities included design supervision to complete the design of rail, roadway reconstruction, storm drain modeling and design, sidewalks, illumination, walls, drainage impact studies, design of one new bridge, design of three additional bridge reconstructions, and permi

Huitt-Zollars provided site development, grading, utility infrastructure, storm drainage, and storm detention services. The City of Austin, Water and Wastewater Division approved utility improvements. Based on a change in use and configuration of the previously platted lots, the project included vacating several utility easements, relocating water and wastewater, fire and domestic services to the property. Utilities were constructed after street cut permits were issued, and all applicable easements and permits were in place.

Huitt-Zollars provided site civil design and landscaping design services for this development project. As part of the contractors' design/build team, Huitt-Zollars assisted in processing plans and gaining City and County approval. Huitt-Zollars coordinated the design effort between all utility contractors, ensuring no field conflicts occurred. The project required an innovative stormwater management design. The landscape and civil design teams incorporated a rock-scape with drought-tolerant landscaping into the infiltration pond design.
