University of Wisconsin-Madison engineering students created a preliminary design report for the revised design of the Grand Avenue and Forest Street intersection for Marathon County and the City of Wausau. To prepare an effective preliminary design, the team has reviewed the project scope and
constraints outlined in the proposal and identified additional details through discussions with the City Engineer and County Transportation Planner. Further, the team visited the project site to observe the restrictions of the current intersection and existing conditions firsthand. The students obtained and reviewed data for existing public and utilities including watermains, sanitary sewer, storm sewer, laterals, and electrical. Additionally, right of way boundaries, contours, and building footprints were reviewed along with crash data for the intersection.
