ABOUT US

As a group of 20 students, co-advised by Senior Engineers from Caltrans District 8, we were  tasked to prepare a Preliminary Project Study Report (PSR) on a real-life highway project. Our senior project has been conducting a series of various studies including a Planning Study, Traffic Analysis, Geometric Design, Construction Staging, Environmental Impact Study, and Cost Benefit Analysis. Due to the virtual learning environment, this year’s project team has worked to design the senior project completely while being remote, requiring multiple weekly team meetings, virtual collaboration, and purchase of additional software. These studies have covered a wide range of the core courses related to the transportation emphasis of Civil Engineering.
