Survey Roadway & Infrastructure
CVL’s survey team has worked with contractors, metropolitan districts and government agencies to assist in the construction and improvement of roadways and infrastructure. CVL’s staff understands what may look like a simple stretch of road can involve many conflicts. The need for additional right-of-way, slope and construction easements, above and below ground utility conflicts and traffic control are just some of the problems that can arise without adequate attention. CVL works to anticipate and resolve the many conflicts that can arise so that construction remains on schedule. We also understand that the client may not always be able to anticipate the need for a survey field crew, be it due to lost stakes or a change in direction. CVL’s survey managers will do what it takes to get a crew to your site. We believe everyone on a project has the same goal, that being a successful, on-time, on-budget project. At CVL, we strive to help our clients reach that goal. |

Quebec Street
Thornton, Colorado
This half mile stretch of Quebec Street was a dirt road that ran through the bottom of the Brantner Gulch drainage way. The survey department provided legals and exhibits for construction and utility easements before the start of construction of this project. When construction began, CVL was responsible for the staking of all the improvements. These staking responsibilities included slope staking, retaining walls, waterline, curb and gutter, pavement, guardrail, striping and the box culvert with pedestrian trail and stilling basin at the Brantner Gulch drainage way. |

Newlin Gulch Road
Parker, Colorado
This quarter plus mile of roadway was required to connect a proposed subdivision to Main Street. Since no development along the roadway had been planned at the time, CVL worked with the owner of the land and the Town of Parker to prepare right-of-way legal descriptions for this portion of Newlin Gulch Road. After the right-of-way had been agreed upon CVL provided the construction staking for this roadway. |
