Antelope Valley

Lincoln, Nebraska, United States

Client: Joint Antelope Valley Authority (City of Lincoln, Lower Platte South Natural Resources District, University of Nebraska)

Parsons Brinckerhoff Role: Planning, Design, Construction Management

Antelope Valley
The City of Lincoln, the University of Nebraska, and the Lower Platte South Natural Resources District hired Parsons Brinckerhoff to oversee and implement three goals for Antelope Valley: community revitalization, stormwater management, and transportation improvements. After 10 years, Antelope Valley is in the final stages of construction. The $246 million project has created new and improved infrastructure including housing, parks, and recreation facilities; storm sewer improvements; and roadway system. Parsons Brinckerhoff has been an extension of city staff on the Antelope Valley Program, providing planning, design, construction management, and coordinating services. Program support has included assistance with annual financial capital improvement plans, cash flow projections, engineering estimate of probable cost, as well as tracking the consultant and construction contractor actual costs. Parsons Brinckerhoff also kept the document management system for the program documents.

Drawing on more than 125 years of experience, Parsons Brinckerhoff plans, designs and manages the construction and operations of the highways of tomorrow. Parsons Brinckerhoff provides a full range of services to help transportation agencies meet the financial, technical and contextual challenges of delivering roads and highways that address the economic, social and environmental needs of the communities they serve.

Our professionals—including world-renowned teams in tunneling and major bridges, as well as transportation planning and traffic management systems—have devised solutions for projects of all scopes, sizes, and levels of complexity. We encourage innovation across disciplines and collaboration with clients and stakeholders to develop outcomes that are as sustainable for tomorrow as they are successful for today.

We can be involved in every aspect of a highway program including transportation planning, traffic analysis, urban design, environmental impact studies and statements, funding and feasibility analysis, preliminary engineering and final design, construction planning, and public communications and involvement. Our project visualization services assist clients in defining and communicating project goals and winning public approval.

We have played a leading role on some of the most complex and well-known highway programs of the last half-century, including Hawaii’s H-3 highway (1996), Fort Washington Way in Cincinnati (2000) and the Woodrow Wilson Bridge (2008) serving the Washington, D.C., area. Today, we apply the lessons of experience and spirit of innovation to create the highways of tomorrow.
