Harper Houf Peterson Righellis Inc. received an Honor Award for the 2023 ACEC Oregon Engineering Excellence for the SE 129th Avenue Bike Lanes and Sidewalk Improvement Project in the City of Happy Valley, Oregon. MB&G is proud to have managed and led environmental site reviews and regulatory permitting compliance on this project. The project involved construction of approximately 1,450 linear feet of sidewalk on the east side of SE 129th Avenue and widening of the existing pavement through the curves between SE Mountain Gate Road and SE Scott Creek Lane. The east side of the roadway was widened to allow for bike lanes in both directions and to construct a sidewalk. MB&G’s Stuart Myers led wetland delineation and noxious weed surveys along the project corridor and oversaw the preparation of Endangered Species Act compliance documentation that demonstrated the project would not adversely affect water quality conditions downstream in the Clackamas River.
