DEMONSTRATED
SUCCESS ROOSEVELT DRIVE, MENOMONEE FALLS, WISCONSIN
Stantec created a modern boulevard expansion design around the needs of local
neighborhoods. Stantec performed a wide variety of engineering services, typically
providing design and construction engineering for capital improvement projects.
Services provided include TID formations, wetland assessments, Wisconsin
Department of Natural Resources permitting, surveying, municipal design and
construction, and environmental contamination services. Over the past 15 years,
Stantec has completed over 50 projects for this municipality. This project was the
reconstruction of a collector road in an existing residential area of the Village. The
design of this project included detailed review of existing driveways and curb ramps
and adjusting them to meet current Village and ADA standards. Residential Driveways
were revised to best fit the new roadway and accommodate resident’s preference for
smooth driveway access.

MAIN STREET RECONSTRUCTION, MENOMONEE FALLS, WISCONSIN
Stantec led the design and reconstruction of this busy downtown business district.
The project included pavement and utility upgrades as well as traffic signal upgrades,
ADA ramp improvements, traffic calming. Stantec also served in the construction
oversight role which placed a high priority on communication with affected business
owners and minimization of adverse impacts to shoppers and other pedestrian
traffic. The construction work was performed ‘under traffic’ so Stantec designed a
multi-phased traffic control plan which prioritized worker and pedestrian safety while
maintaining as much uninterrupted traffic-flow as possible

COUNTY Y ROUNDABOUT, RACINE COUNTY, WISCONSIN
This project was a conversion of a dangerous, stop-sign controlled (partially un-
controlled) intersection to a single-lane roundabout. Stantec designed the project and
provided construction staking and inspection. The project was challenging because
of the number of immediately adjacent properties which needed full-time access
through-out construction. Attentive construction observation was required during
construction as there were a number of businesses and residents that were impacted.
The intersection was initially scheduled to remain open during construction. But due
to constructability issues and safety concerns Stantec and the County decided to
close the intersection to through traffic. Stantec addressed all of the public’s concerns
throughout the project. The County Engineer and the Town Chairperson stated that
Stantec did an exemplary job responding to public concerns and the management of
construction.

Matt designed and oversaw construction inspection of a roundabout in the Town of Wind Lake. This
roundabout replaced an unsafe 4-way stop with a single leg bypass that allowed one movement of
traffic to completely avoid the intersection, often at unsafe speeds. The construction had to be done
under traffic since one leg of the intersection had no other outlet.

SUCCESS MMSD PP I/I, MILWAUKEE, WISCONSIN
In 2019, Stantec worked as a subconsultant to Brown and Caldwell on the MMSD
PP I/I project. The project’s goal was to help analyze the I/I concerns of MMSD’s
sanitary sewer conveyance system. The project involved coordinating with the City of
Milwaukee, MMSD, and Brown and Caldwell to study the subbasin along Hope Avenue
and Fiebrantz Avenue between W Appleton Avenue and N 68th Street. The analysis
for the subbasin included eight micromonitors and two City meters, along with a rain
gauge to measure rainfall. The Stantec’s team worked with the City of Milwaukee
Public Works to assist with traffic control during installation and removal of the
micromonitors to assure safety of the team.
After the data was collected, Stantec analyzed the data to determine the amount of
I/I that occurred during the storm events within the sewer system. The flow for each
subbasin was compared to determine the areas with low, moderate or high I/I.

In 2019, Stantec worked as a subconsultant to Brown and Caldwell on the MMSD
PP I/I project. The project’s goal was to help analyze the infiltration and inflow
(I/I) concerns of MMSD’s sanitary sewer conveyance system. The project involved
coordinating with the City of Milwaukee, MMSD, and Brown and Caldwell to study
the subbasin along Hope Avenue and Fiebrantz Avenue between W Appleton Avenue
and N 68th Street. The analysis for the subbasin included eight micromonitors and
two City meters, along with a rain gauge to measure rainfall. The Stantec’s team
worked with the City of Milwaukee Public Works to assist with traffic control during
installation and removal of the micromonitors to assure safety of the team.

DUNN’S MARSH WATERSHED STUDY, MADISON, WISCONSIN
Stormwater flooding in the Dunn’s Marsh watershed threatens human safety,
damages, homes, businesses, and infrastructure, and degrades the quality of life of
Madison residents. Stantec is working with the City of Madison to develop solutions
to stormwater flooding in the project area. The primary goals of the watershed
study are to understand existing hydrologic conditions and flood risks / impacts
in the watershed, develop and evaluate alternatives to reduce these flood risks,
and communicate with the public about existing flood risks and impacts as well
as potential solutions. Elements of this project include 2D hydraulic modeling of
surface runoff using XP-SWMM to see very detailed flooding patterns, calibration of
models to measured water levels and sewer flows, and extensive public outreach and
communication.

BLUE AND GREEN CORRIDORS PROJECT, NEW ORLEANS, LOUISIANA
Stantec re-envisioned the neighborhoods to use the large neutral grounds to
store water during flood events and create beneficial water areas to enhance the
community. Elysian Fields will have a beautifully planted canal with water features
and play spaces to bring the community together. The other major avenues will have
landscaped neutral grounds that reduce flooding and filter runoff. Green infrastructure
interventions were designed to reintroduce water to the ground to reduce subsidence
and reduce heat island effect. A network of biking and pedestrian facilities where
designed to create new connections to the places where the residents work, play,
and live. A “Complete Streets” approach prioritizes pedestrians, bicyclists, and public
transit to create a safer multi-modal environment. Vacant lots have been repurposed
to provide multiple uses for community spaces and stormwater management.
