DESCRIPTION

Performed for the City of Sedona through a Cooperative Purchasing Agreement with the Arizona Department of Administration, this high-profile job order encompassed a broad range of drainage, roadway, and civil scopes including the complete reconstruction of the popular Sunset Drive in Sedona. Sunset Drive would frequently flood and close during storm events at the low water crossing across Carroll Canyon Wash due to there being no capacity for runoff under the existing roadway, thus this project was a necessity for the City of Sedona and their residents.

Banicki completely rebuilt 500’ of Sunset Drive with a new asphalt pavement section, raising the profile of the road by 10’ to provide a smoother driving transition. After removing the existing roadway, we installed a CONTECH CON/ SPAN® Drainage Archway at the low water crossing to provide a relief route for wash flow under Sunset Drive. Prior to rebuilding the road, we imported 2,000 CY of fill material to place over the archway.

Further project scope included a 10’ wide Sedona red colored concrete multi-use path; stamped concrete crosswalks; sidewalk; curb and gutter; ADA ramps; a speed table; HDPE drainage and catch basins; and natural stone retaining walls.
