Process

This year's senior project team was tasked with preparing a project study report. Currently, there is no interchange at Keller Road and Interstate 215. The City of Murrieta, has requested to design and build an interchange at Keller Road due to the traffic in the city along with the construction of a new Kaiser Medical Facility adjacent to the proposed interchange. 

 

We began by identifying our project boundaries where our study would take place and determining the existing and planned land uses around the interchange. Then we specifically determined the purpose and needs of the project. Next, we performed a traffic analysis on the existing interchange to its feasibility today, in 2020 (the proposed completion year for any new design implemented), and 2040 (the proposed design life for any new design implemented).

  • Site visit

  • Alternative Scoping

  • Traffic Analysis

    • Synchro Modeling

    • Intersection Control Evaluation

    • PTV Vissim Simulation

  • Geometric Design

    • Feasibility of Designs

    • Impact Analysis

    • Autoturn Simulation
    • Geometric Approval Drawings

    • Advanced Planning Study

  • Environmental Analysis

    • Preliminary Environmental Analysis Report​

  • Cost/Benefit Analysis

  • Weighted Decision Matrix

  • Construction Staging

  • 3D Digital Model

  • Formal Presentations

  • Project Study Report

The Project Study Report (PSR) is the culmination of most of the deliverables. Inside it we include the Caltrans study reports: Intersection Control Evaluation and Preliminary Envirionmental Analysis Report. We also include the design documents: Advanced Planning Study and Geometric Approval Drawings. Finally, we included the items necessary for, if this project were really happening, bids to be submitted: Cost Estimates and Construction Staging Plans.
