Hollidaysburg Borough, Blair County
This project was undertaken in order to improve conditions and created a safe corridor for pedestrians, residents, and businesses along the 200, 300, and 400 blocks of Bedford Street. Design documents included replacement of deteriorated and non-ADA-compliant sidewalks, curbs, and curb ramps.
The corridor is primarily single-family homes; however, there are several commercial and civic buildings and a public park. Two speed tables were added to reduce vehicle speed and provide traffic calming measures to this busy street.
We have worked with Keller Engineers for structural and civil engineering support on six projects over the past five years and have been very pleased with the results. Our projects tend to be complicated phased renovation/ addition projects calling for creativity in planning and construction. I have been particularity pleased with their responsiveness to issues that arise during construction which is of particular importance to us and our clients. Vern L.
