Project Overview

Role: Right-of-Way establishment and Topographic Survey Services

M&J Engineering, P.C. (M&J) provided land surveying services for the Washington Avenue Realignment project, aimed at improving traffic flow by redesigning the intersection of Washington Avenue, South Main Street, and Washington Street. The existing “S” configuration created significant traffic issues, requiring accurate survey data to support the redesign.

The project involved reviewing public records documents such as title binders as provided by the city, tax maps, ROW maps, and deeds. These documents were compiled to create a property/ROW mosaic map, A control network was established for an A-2 and T-2 requirements in accordance with state Standards. Utilizing our Trimble R12 GNSS receivers along with “ACORN” (Connecticut’s Continuous Operating network. and Trimble S7, a one (1”) second robotic Total Station for subsequent location work. Boundary retracement surveys identified and located monuments and other cited evidence to aid in the ROW resolutions. Site features such as sidewalks, curbs, and utilities (surface and subsurface) were collected and integrated into a comprehensive base map.

M&J collected high-precision data, processed through our Trimble business center along with integration into our AutoCAD Civil 3D 2025 platform. Deliverables included detailed topographic maps, control network sheets, and reports on deed research and boundary findings.

Upon completion of the proposed design, our survey group commenced with the preparation of complete Parcel Acquisition Documents/Legal Descriptions for all impacted properties.
