The award-winning Northwest Corridor Express Lanes is the largest constructed transportation project in Georgia\u2019s history and the first Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) project to be procured as a design-build finance.<\/strong> Parsons was the lead designer<\/a> for this massive urban freeway project, which involved 29.7 miles of reversible tolled express lanes along I-75 and I-575 in metropolitan Atlanta, three intersecting interstate highways, and 39 bridges.<\/p>\n

Project Scope<\/h3>\n

Parsons\u2019 project team responded to the inherent challenges of such a large and complex project with alternative technical concepts, accelerated bridge construction techniques, and creative solutions. By doing this, the project has reduced costs by approximately $110 million and finished on an accelerated schedule. Also, our solutions reduced impacts on the environment, highway users, and the traveling public along the corridor.<\/p>\n

Intelligent Transportation Solutions<\/h3>\n

Utilizing our intelligent transportation solutions<\/a>, we helped GDOT to monitor traffic, control messaging signs, and operate access gates. In addition, our team supported the Georgia State Road and Tollway Authority (SRTA) by providing the design\/furnish\/installation of our intelligent transportation solution network and the installation\/configuration of Parsons\u2019 iNET\u2122<\/a> software to collect traffic volumes and enable dynamic toll pricing.<\/p>\n

Awards<\/h3>\n

Since 2018, the Northwest Corridor Express Lanes has received multiple awards and accolades.<\/p>\n
