7th Standard Road Widening

7th Standard Road Widening, Bakersfield

The 7th Standard Road Widening project widened the roadway from two lanes to four lanes, constructed a separate parallel bridge adjacent to and north of the existing bridge crossing State Route 99, modified on- and off-ramps, and constructed a grade separation for 7th Standard Road over the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad at Santa Fe Way.

As a subconsultant, LIN Consulting provided PS&E with roadway lighting, traffic signal, and signing and striping designs.

Westside Parkway

Westside Parkway, Bakersfield

The proposed Westside Parkway addresses the traffic problems and issues of the metropolitan Bakersfield area. The growing population of west Bakersfield and the lack of east-west arterials in the area make Westside Parkway an important corridor connecting to the Bakersfield Central Business District. Westside Parkway starts as a four-lane divided roadway and expands into an eight-lane divided roadway. The right of way acquired allows it to be expanded ultimately to an eight-lane roadway. As a subconsultant, LIN Consulting is responsible for the design of traffic signals, signal interconnect, and the preparation of transportation management plans (TMP) for various construction segments of the project.
