Huitt-Zollars is currently working on the first phase of the VLL Data Center in Los Lunas. The project consists of overall master planning for the entire 300-acre campus. The first phase includes the construction of the internal road system and the first two buildings within the campus— totaling over 1,000,000 square feet.
Huitt-Zollars was Prime Design on this project aimed to remove a 40-year old 2,800-GPM lift station from service and replace it with a new 2,800-GPM lift station at a new location. The new design allows flow to be directed to two separate wastewater treatment plant locations through the use of two pairs of submersible pumps.
Huitt-Zollars is providing construction design and management services for a new 3 MG concrete reservoir and new 6 MGD water reuse system booster station located at the Cabezon Wastewater Treatment Plant #6. The construction of the 3 MG reuse storage tank includes a concrete foundation, inlet piping, outlet piping, overflow and drain lines, and special coatings for protection.
The project purpose involved eliminating cut-through traffic traveling to and from three significant destinations within an area of approximately 1.02 miles. The project improves motoring safety along the Southern Boulevard corridor between Juan Tabo and Eubank Boulevards by addressing speeding, illegal U-turns, heavy congestion during peak periods, and parking in the median. The project involved shifting the eastbound lane of Southern Boulevard north, reducing the median to 34 feet, and the addition of three signalized intersections. Depressing the medians provided curb openings that provi
Huitt-Zollars completed the design of a four-lane collector road which connects to two major arterials, Unser Boulevard and Westside Boulevard, and serves as entry for the new Presbyterian Hospital. The road right-of-way contains water, sewer, and storm drain piping sized to serve approximately 145 acres of commercial, office, and institutional land use, and to provide access to a proposed 1,000,000-SF Lifestyle Center.
Huitt-Zollars provided design, survey, and construction management services for the developer of the Cabezon community as well as individual builders. This 900-acre planned community offers amenities that provide an exceptional living experience. In addition to providing the infrastructure design to support the project, Huitt-Zollars removed approximately one mile of floodplain to open areas to development. The floodplain was routed to a new lined channel around the property and remapped with FEMA.
