Ardmore Roderick was a key partner in the BCP Tollway Partners joint venture for the construction management of the second phase of the Jane Addams Memorial Tollway project. This significant project involved rebuilding the outside lanes and shoulders along a 25-mile segment between Randall Road in Elgin and I-294, adding a new lane to provide four lanes in each direction. The scope also included the construction of noise walls and retaining walls, water main and utility relocations, and drainage improvements.

The I-90 Rebuilding and Widening project also encompassed the reconstruction of I-90 bridges over local roads between Illinois Route 53 and I-294. This work required coordination with various entities including Cook and Kane counties, the Union Pacific Railroad, Canadian National Railroad, O’Hare International Airport, Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois Department of Natural Resources, Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, as well as local townships, villages, and police and fire departments.

Ardmore Roderick’s survey personnel provided QA/QC as-built survey checks as part of our construction inspection services. This involved extending the survey control network, providing location checks on sound walls and drainage structures, and surveying grades for excavated and final surfaces. Cross-sections were plotted using Microstation and GeoPak and utilized for calculating earthwork quantities, ensuring the project’s success and accuracy.
