Infinity Engineering is a dynamic, multi-discipline engineering consulting firm comprising of civil, structural, mechanical, and electrical capabilities, as well as advanced measurements services. This multi-discipline approach allows Infinity’s engineers to produce designs in open collaboration from project inception through completion.
Transportation
Filmore Ave. Complete Street Reconstruction
Spanning over 1000 linear feet, the Filmore Avenue project was a complete street reconstruction comprising of improvements of drainage, domestic sewer, and water infrastructure. For this project, Infinity identified and quantified damages to roadways, driveway aprons, sidewalks, curbs, and drainage structures to aid the Department of Public Works to obtain FEMA grant funding.
As part of the street reconstruction, Infinity provided civil engineering designs for the replacement of the surfaces for the roadway, driveways, and sidewalks. Additionally, Infinity improved drainage efficiencies with the addition of catch basins and drain inlets, as well as establishing new grade lines to tie the new drainage system into established lines.
City Park Ave. & Canal St. Transportation Terminus
As the prime consultant for the final phase of the Canal Streetcar Line refurbishment, Infinity was tasked with designing a transportation hub that seamlessly and safely integrated the streetcar line, bus lanes, vehicular traffic, cycling lanes, and pedestrian walkways. The project extended the streetcar tracks to Canal Boulevard with a terminus in the first turnaround bay of the street.
Deemed the “worst” intersection in the city by the RTA and Department of Public Works, Infinity redesigned the terminal to improve vehicular and streetcar safety. The new alignment improved traffic flow by adding proper signalization along City Park Avenue and Canal Boulevard; serving over 50,000 cars, buses, trucks, streetcars, and pedestrians every day.
Joe Brown Park Bridge Replacement
Infinity performed the above and below deck structural condition inspection and evaluation of fourteen (14) bridges around the City of New Orleans. Upon inspection, Infinity assigned load ratings as per AASHTO requirements to each bridge.
After careful analysis, Infinity recommended for a bridge to be replaced in Joe Brown Park. Infinity provided the engineering designs for a complete replacement of the bridge.
The project included the demolition of the old bridge, designs for the installation of a new bridge, as well as the establishment of new traffic markings. Infinity provided construction administration throughout the entire project.
