Welcome to the Geocon Team, Michael Watari!

BEN|EN is excited to announce we have won a Project of the Year Award by the APWA Sacramento Chapter for the Mather Field Road Rehabilitation project under the Transportation category! This project is owned by City of Rancho Cordova. Our Project Manager Lizette Martinez, PE (Lizette Zavala) managed the design and other civil engineering services of this project. Here is a brief description of the project: BEN|EN provided engineering support services to City staff for the rehabilitation. The project rehabilitated the pavement on Mather Field Road—a four-lane roadway—from Folsom Boulevard to International Drive. The total length of the project was approximately one mile and included aerial imagery with Lidar survey, topographic mapping, utility coordination, re-design of the existing median, landscape and irrigation design, pavement evaluation, and resurfacing recommendations. By using the point cloud generated by Lidar for survey, areas of distress on the pavement were identified by manipulating the colors of slopes in AutoCAD. Traffic signal design improvements were performed by our traffic division at six intersections, including replacement of the existing damaged detector loops with a video/radar detection system, upgrading existing pedestrian pushbuttons to Accessible Pedestrian Signals, and upgrading existing 8-inch signal heads to 12-inch signal heads. Thank you to our hardworking staff for bringing this project to our community, along with GEOCON, UNICO Engineering, Inc., GPA Consulting, and HELIX Environmental Planning, Inc.!

Geocon hit it out of the park at the company baseball game, bringing friends and family along for a perfect day at the ballpark! We enjoyed great food, cold drinks, and even better company while cheering on the Padres. The excitement only grew as the team secured a win, making the day even more memorable. Here's to many more fun work events! #GeoconPadresDay #CompanyFun #GoPadres #FriendsandFamily

Cutting-edge transportation solutions are coming to the City of Tracy, and our Geocon team is proud to have contributed to the design of this exciting progress!   The City of Tracy has approved a $42.6M contract for the construction of a Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) at I-580 and Patterson Pass Road/International Parkway. This project will feature three northbound lanes on International Parkway, improving traffic flow to the neighboring 1,800-acre International Park of Commerce (known as IPC), and easing congestion in this busy corridor for both trucks and commuters. The new interchange will also include a widened I-580 overcrossing, new on/off ramps, and dedicated bicycle and pedestrian lanes.   Geocon is the Geotechnical Engineer of Record for the project, completing geotechnical investigations and two design-level Foundation Reports: one for the bridge widening and one for a significant retaining wall on the southbound I-580 onramp, as well as a comprehensive Geotechnical Design and Materials Report for the entire project.
