Background and Discussion:
The Schiel Road 2 project involves the expansion of an existing two-lane roadway into a four-lane boulevard section, featuring a 32-foot-wide raised median and storm sewer improvements. As part of the roadway expansion, it is necessary to encase the existing pipeline from right-of-way (ROW) to right-of-way. The pipeline encasement is a requirement to ensure that the expanded roadway infrastructure is adequately protected, and to minimize future maintenance impacts on the roadway and median improvements. Extending the encasement across the full width of the ROW is critical due to the increased roadway width and the addition of new storm sewer facilities, both of which elevate the risk profile for underground utilities. Ensuring the pipeline is properly encased now will protect the integrity of the pipeline and the roadway infrastructure, while also reducing the likelihood of future conflicts, relocations, or costly repairs.
