    At OHM Advisors, visualization is more than just a tool—it's a vital part of our design process and collaborative efforts with clients and communities. 🌟 Visualization uses imagery to communicate ideas and designs, offering a clear picture before construction begins. It helps us test and refine concepts for better design solutions. Our Visualization Specialist, Zeke Bolon, crafted a captivating video showcasing the importance of visualization in our projects. From exploring big-picture impacts to refining intricate design details, visualization is integrated into all phases of a project, fostering a constructive dialogue between our team, clients, and the community. 🏘️ Watch to see how visualization transforms our workflow and advances communities. 🎥 #OHMAdvisors #Visualization #AdvancingCommunities #Innovation #Design #Engineering #CommunityDevelopment

    🎉 Exciting news! The Zeeb and Miller Roundabout project is officially open to traffic! 🚗 Originally planned as a signalized intersection, OHM Advisors proposed a roundabout for enhanced safety and improved sight distance. Thanks to the incredible efforts of our design team—David Conn, PEBrian Ardanowski, PEJeremy Marcero, and Bryan Reppenhagen—with invaluable inspection support from Jonathan Bastin, EIT, we delivered an outstanding product. The county was so impressed with our work that they have requested the same team for future roundabout projects! Great job, team. 👏 #InfrastructureInnovation #CommunitySafety #EngineeringExcellence #Teamwork #OHMAdvisors #CivilEngineering

    🌊 Restoring Nature’s Balance at Stony Creek Metropark 🌿 Our dedicated team members recently rolled up their sleeves for a fantastic day at Stony Creek Metropark in Shelby Township, MI. As part of the Michigan Certified Natural Shoreline Professional organization's Field Day, OHMers Alisha Busuttil, PE (Stidam), Abigail Boger, and Melissa Meszaros joined forces to install a naturalized shoreline on a portion of the park’s eroding shoreline. 🌱 Our Mission: Restoring Nature’s Balance The day was filled with hands-on work, where our team installed erosion control blankets, coir logs, and native plantings to restore and stabilize the shoreline. This naturalized approach not only prevents further erosion but also enhances the beauty and ecological health of the area. 🤝 Collaboration and Gratitude Stony Creek Metropark expressed their gratitude for the support. It was heartwarming to see such appreciation and excitement for the positive impact of our work. 🌟 Immediate Impact The results were immediate! Within minutes of finishing the installation, wildlife began to approach the newly stabilized shoreline, and nearby kayakers were already enjoying the improved scenery. Moments like these highlight the importance and joy of our work in environmental restoration. Kudos to our team for their dedication and hard work! Your efforts are protecting our natural resources and enhancing the beauty and sustainability of our parks. 👏 #OHMAdvisors #CommunityAdvancement #EnvironmentalRestoration #NaturalShoreline #TeamWork #Sustainability #FieldDay

    We are excited to share an in-depth look at our (award-winning!) Spellacy Bridge project in Holmes County, Ohio! 🌉 This remarkable project involved replacing a deficient four-span steel beam and truss bridge with a stunning 300' two-span timber-covered bridge on concrete abutments. The new structure is more than just a bridge; it’s a vital economic artery for eco-tourism attractions lining the Mohican River. Some key highlights: 🔹 Economic Impact: Serves as an economic lifeline for the region's eco-tourism. 🔹 OHM Difference: Over $1 million saved in construction costs through constructability reviews, inspection support, and contract administration. 🔹 Challenges Overcome: Tight project schedule, significant access impact, financial hardship, supply-chain shortages, market volatility, severe weather events, and historical abutment discoveries. Our team's expertise in constructability review, construction inspection support, and contract administration played a crucial role in saving over $1 million in construction costs and delivering the project ahead of schedule. But don't just take our word for it! Learn more about the project and see it in action here: https://lnkd.in/gRYMwur3 #Infrastructure #Engineering #Construction #ProjectManagement #OHMAdvisors
