Indian River County ATMS Phases 2 & 3

The FDOT District Four and Indian River County Signal System Phases 2 and 3 involved two separate contracts for improvements to 45 signalized intersections located throughout Indian River County, Florida. The project totaled more than $4.7 million in construction costs. The FDOT needed a firm to provide Construction Engineering Inspection (CEI) services for the advanced traffic management system (ATMS)/intelligent transportation system (ITS) project.

DRMP provided contract administration and inspection services during the construction of two Indian River County signal system projects. Group 2 included adding 40 additional signals to the existing 50 signal closed loop system in Vero Beach, Florida. The project also included inspection of installation for fiber optic cable, mast arm poles, signalization, video cameras and signal controller cabinets. Group 3 was a Sebastian, Florida area, design-build project, which included installing fiber optic interconnect to integrate existing signalized intersections, installation of traffic monitoring cameras at nine intersections, replacing the existing signal strain poles with mast arms and associated upgrades at five intersections.

DRMP performed all field CEI services during construction including project coordination, contract administration, construction inspection and materials sampling and testing for this signal system project. Work required close coordination to be maintained between the Indian River County Traffic Signal Division and the FDOT District Four. DRMP used quality and cost control measures to achieve maximum cost effectiveness.
