Eastland Drive and Falls Avenue

The intersection of Eastland Drive and Falls Avenue in Twin Falls, Idaho, is utilized by approximately 25,000 vehicles daily. Therefore, the intersection was closed entirely during the project, with detours going through nearby neighborhoods. In addition, STRATA provided geotechnical engineering services, as the project’s purpose was to replace the current hot-mix asphalt pavement section with a Portland cement concrete pavement.

GEOTECHNICAL STRATA performed field exploration, laboratory testing, and analyses for the surface and subsurface conditions to provide conclusions and recommendations for site preparation and earthwork that included existing material removal, subgrade preparation, wet weather and soil construction, structural fill, compaction requirements, and utility trench backfill, and pavement section design.
