c) Relevant engineering experience
Georgia Department of Transportation, US 84, Pierce and Wayne Counties, Georgia. Served as lead roadway engineer for the design of seven miles of 2-lane to 4-lane widening of US 84. Mr. Bodycomb was the lead roadway engineer for all phases of design from concept through final design. He developed the concept report, designed and coordinated the horizontal and vertical alignments, cross sections, staging plans, drainage plans, and pavement designs. Due to the flat topography of the area, special attention was placed upon the drainage design.
Georgia Department of Transportation, I-985/SR 53 Interchange and SR 13 Widening, Hall County, Georgia. Served as roadway engineer for the preliminary, final plans, and right-of-way plans. The project involved the redesign of the I985/SR 53 interchange plus the widening of 1.2 miles of SR 13. Mr. Bodycomb designed the horizontal and vertical profile for the new frontage road. He set the driveway profiles and the erosion control along the widened portion of SR 13. He also completed the right-of-way plans for SR 13.
Georgia Department of Transportation, US 27 Improvements, Multiple Counties, Georgia. Developed plans for 11 miles of mainline and three miles of side road improvements for US 27. Mr. Bodycomb completed the traffic analysis for this corridor, including making recommendations for median opening locations and right turn lanes. He assisted in the development of erosion control plans and the drainage design, and provided quality control of overall plan production.
Cintra, GDOT PPP/Design-Build Western Wall, Atlanta, Georgia. Lead engineer responsible for the development of preliminary alignment layouts and bid quantity calculations to support the contractor with submitting a competitive bid for construction. The Western Wall project would construct two toll lanes in each direction along 10 miles of I-285 from I-75 in Cobb County to I-20 in Fulton County and extended 16 miles along I-20 from SR92 in Douglas County to M.L.K. in Fulton County. This complex design included a total length of 26 miles with a significant portion requiring bridges and walls.
Cobb County Department of Transportation, Cobb County Bridges Batch 1, Cobb County, Georgia. Lead roadway design engineer responsible for roadway design associated with three bridge replacements at two different locations in the Austell and Powder Springs area. Collins Boulevard included design for replacement of a small bridge on a dead-end street near the City of Acworth. A temporary detour was used to maintain access to the businesses that operate on this road. Garrett Road included replacement of a deficient bridge next to a tight curve that did not meet speed design requirements. A longer curve was required shifting the alignment. This created earthwork challenges that had to be factored into the design. Oglesby Road included the design for the replacement of two structurally deficient bridges over Powder Springs Creek and its overflow area. A detour was proposed to allow for a quick construction period. Along with close coordination with the bridge group, Mr. Bodycomb helped develop the concept report and designed the horizontal and vertical alignments, cross sections, staging plans, and erosion control plans.

b) Primary Office Amec Foster Wheeler will provide project management, roadway design, quality control/quality assurance, and administration through our local Kennesaw office, where our proposed Project Manager, Mr. Dan Bodycomb, PE, Roadway Design Lead, Mr. Glenn Bowman, PE, and design teams are headquartered. Our Environmental Lead, Ms. Heather Edwards, AICP (Edwards-Pittman), is headquartered in Smyrna, Georgia.
c) Additional Resource Areas and Ability Quality Assurance – The Amec Foster Wheeler team includes Mr. David Griffith, who will make sure the team adheres to the required quality control procedures briefly summarized below. During his 32-year career with GDOT, Mr. Griffith served as the District 2 Preconstruction Engineer for 11 years, and he was responsible for directing and implementing GDOT’s quality control procedures on a daily basis for numerous personnel in the design, survey, right of way, and planning and programming disciplines in District 2.
Quality Control – Amec Foster Wheeler is committed to following the Quality Management Principles presented in the ISO 9000 series of Quality Management Standards.
Our basic tenet is that quality begins with the individual. Our company’s goal is for every member of every project team to complete their work accurately and efficiently the first time. This goal is achieved through continual feedback, training and nurturing a culture of excellence. Amec Foster Wheeler policies and procedures demand that all work products and documents be independently checked for quality prior to submittal to the client.
The lead professionals selected for this project have over 65 years of combined transportation experience developing and implementing similar projects for GDOT and other agencies. This extensive experience will be leveraged to provide the highest level of quality control. While each Key Team Lead is ultimately responsible for the quality of their unit’s work product, all final documents for this project will be subjected to an additional Inter-Disciplinary Review (IDR) for enhanced quality control prior to submittal. The IDR will provide an opportunity for team members from various project disciplines (road design, environmental, etc.) to review the documents to make sure the final work product is correct on the first submittal. For example, the road design team will review environmental work products to make sure the plans and documents are properly coordinated, and the traffic team will review the roadway plans to make sure the design is consistent with the traffic analysis.
Road Design and Traffic Teams – We have assembled a road design team with more than 70 years of combined design experience that will be led by Mr. Bowman. The team well understands the importance of meeting all AASHTO and GDOT design criteria for this type of roadway while avoiding and
minimizing impacts to sensitive resources. We have also added Mr. Peng Zhang, PE, PTOE to the team to lead the traffic operations study and design efforts. Mr. Zhang and his staff have over 26 years of combined experience in this area and have developed numerous sets of GDOT approved traffic, signing, marking, and signal plans for similar projects.
Public Involvement/Environmental Documentation – Given the rural setting of the project corridor, it will be very important to proactively reach out to the public early and often to enhance their understanding of and involvement in the project development process. Residents, farmers, and businesses will want to know how the widening will affect their properties, and they will also want to know about possible travel delays during construction. In addition to Ms. Edwards’ extensive experience, we have identified Mr. Lee Walton, AICP, and Ms. Paige Hatley, AICP, with over 39 years of combined experience to assist in the critical public involvement effort.
Getting the environmental analysis right the first time is also essential to achieving the project schedule. Multiple, experienced personnel have been identified in each discipline to ensure the quality control checks are scheduled and completed throughout the life of the project. With the combined resources of Edwards-Pitman and Amec Foster Wheeler, the project schedule will be met and our quality goals will be achieved.
Survey Team – Good designs begin with accurate field surveys. For this project we have identified David Millen, RLS, to lead our teams of surveyors who possess over 142 years of combined survey experience. They will produce accurate and complete field topography and existing right of way and property data from the very beginning. Their attention to quality work will assure efficient designs and right of way acquisitions during later phases of project development.
Constructability Review - The Amec Foster Wheeler team includes Mr. Thomas Howell, PE, who will perform a constructability review of the project. After a 30-year career with GDOT, he retired as the Thomaston District Engineer and former Director of Construction. Mr. Howell will review the plans for constructability and give advice on maintenance of traffic, detours and the proposed stage construction plans.
Project Schedule and Capacity – Our team understands the importance of meeting project schedules. We have teamed with several firms to ensure quality plans, documents and specifications are delivered on time and on budget. Our Project Manager, Road, and Environmental Leads are available now and, as our resource commitment table that follows illustrates, our team has outstanding capacity to deliver the project milestones ahead of the proposed RFP dates (Concept 8/2018, Environmental certification 10/2020, and Let 10/2021). Our team leadership experience and depth of resources give us the ability to efficiently manage and complete this project to meet all of GDOT’s expectations.
