Wick Avenue Improvements at Youngstown University
Youngstown, Ohio
Roadway improvements for the city of Youngstown and Youngstown State University.
The project stretched approximately 0.75 miles, replacing nearly all city infrastructure including right-of-way, waterline, sanitary sewer, stormwater collection system, and the relocation of overhead utilities underground requiring the design of a new multi-conduit duct bank for a variety of utilities.
The scope also included repaving, road dieting, signing, and a light level analysis to comply with prevailing ODOT light levels and safety.
New and improved pedestrian facilities were included as part of the project, including improved pedestrian crossings at Youngstown State University and Ursuline High School, along with new and enhanced decorative street lighting. The project required close coordination with multiple stakeholders including the City of Youngstown, Youngstown State University, CityScape, numerous private utility companies, and local business owners.
