Community General Hospital, Syracuse, NY

O’Brien & Gere was retained by Community General Hospital (CGH) to perform engineering services associated with the planning and construction of a new road, and modifications to a parking lot, to coincide with New York State Department of Transportation (NYSDOT) roadway improvements to NYS Route 173 in front of the hospital.

O’Brien & Gere assisted the CGH management team with the new road construction project, which was performed by the NYSDOT, by providing the following:

• Review of NYSDOT construction documents to identify and assess impacts to CGH
• Participation in the appraisal review conducted by the NYSDOT on the CGH land being condemned for the new road
• Coordination of design and approvals with OCDOT and NYSDOT
• Review of CGH parking lot access and control features necessary to maintain site condition controls (i.e., gated access) based on proposed NYSDOT construction activities
• Evaluation of CGH parking and utility plans
• Development of several alternative facility construction cost estimates

Changes to the road system necessitated modifications to the CGH’s parking lots. As such, O’Brien & Gere assisted CGH with the following:

• Review of existing lighting on the CGH campus, and preparation of a new layout or relocation of existing lighting poles, as necessary
• Preparation of a landscaping plan consistent with existing conditions and available budget
• Preparation of construction documents for parking lot modification
• Shop drawing review
• Consultation with CGH personnel during construction
• Site visits
