Buried under the snow in Geneva is a new 2-mile trail system designed by Upland Design and ERA that meanders through the restored prairie at Geneva Park District’s Peck Farm Park North. The trail system connects to the Stephen D. Persinger Rec Center, an observation deck, a shelter, a sundial, a solstice monument, & the Mid-County Trail. Get ready for long summer strolls!
We are excited about the recent grand opening that took place at the new automobile dealership for Gjovik Ford located in Plano, Illinois. ERA designed the site infrastructure including parking lot, lighting, storm sewers, drainage, and stormwater detention. ERA also performed land surveying services on this project including topographical measurement, boundary surveying, final plat of subdivision, construction phase, staking services, and final as constructed drawing measurements using our drone. We partnered with Global Power and Construction on this exciting project. In the spirit of the holiday season, ERA staff were called to action to pool together donations for a local food pantry, People's Resource Center in Wheaton, IL. We were so impressed with how much our staff was able to pull together in donations that ERA matched the staff's contributions for a total of $3,300 that went directly to People's Resource. 
Congratulations to DuPage County and the Village of Bensenville for winning the Illinois Section ASCE Outstanding Civil Engineering Achievement Award for the Redmond Reservoir Expansion. ERA is extremely proud to have been able to work with such talented staff and be a part of this unique project that reduced both urban and regional flooding. The creativity of the project team and local leaders to make this project happen was second to none. Congrats on a well-deserved award!
The Sycamore Park District Golf Course continues to be improved each year. The upgraded pedestrian bridge at Hole 15, designed by ERA, has officially been placed. The bridge spans the Kishwaukee River and serves as a connection between the tee box and green. Earlier this fall, Sycamore Park District hired Alliance Contractors to perform the bridge and path improvements with construction observation performed by ERA.  ERA donated to and provided drone coverage of the installation for a new 80-foot flagpole for the Bolingbrook Park District. The new flagpole is located at the Park District’s Annerino Community Center along Frontage Road.    ERA assisted Upland Design Ltd and Batavia Park District in upgrading the basketball court, softball and baseball fields, paths, drainage, and ADA compliance at Big Woods Park. The Park District contracted with Integral Construction to complete all improvements this summer and fall. The park is looking ready for action! The ERA-designed parking lot, sidewalk, curb, drainage, and entrance improvements at Sunset Community Center are well on their way. Geneva Park District hired Geneva Construction this fall to construct the improvements, with construction observation by ERA's talented staff. We are excited to see the Kiddie Academy of Itasca celebrate its grand opening this month. ERA provided entitlement, civil engineering, site development, land surveying, and construction phase services for the new premium day care facility.   |
