Westlake Elementary School - Safe Routes

Huitt-Zollars designed safety improvements around Westlake Elementary School as a part of the State-funded Safe Routes to School program for the City of Thousand Oaks. Improvements included a street widening, a pedestrian path, and a traffic signal modification. Huitt-Zollars satisfied the City's aggressive schedule and finished on-time and under-budget to meet the funding requirements. Topographic surveys, record and right-of-way research, property line and utility mapping, and complete construction documents (plans, specifications, and estimates) were provided.

Trancas Creek and Lagoon Feasibility Study: Engineering Excellence Award - American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of California (2017)

Trancas Creek and Lagoon Feasibility Study

During the 1960’s, a two-section 2,000-foot concrete lined channel was added to Trancas Creek for flood control purposes. Time demonstrated that the concrete channels, drought-driven low water levels, and a road crossing culvert created significant fish barriers and negative impacts to the life cycle of natural creek and lagoon resources. The goal of the Trancas Creek and Lagoon Feasibility Study project conducted for the Resource Conservation District of the Santa Monica Mountains was to assess the removal of fish passage barriers and improving habitat for endangered aquatic species.

Lost Hills Road Interchange

Huitt-Zollars provided planning, project reports, environmental analysis, structural design and calculations, and final plans, specifications and estimates for the Lost Hills Road Interchange on US 101. The project included widening an existing two-lane bridge over Highway 101 to a new five-lane bridge with an expanded cloverleaf interchange, along with on- and off-ramps. Multiple alternative interchange configurations were analyzed, to develop the plan that provided adequate capacity while minimizing community impacts.
