Completed Project: Shirk Road Reconstruction

November 9, 2020 By sfoster

Bassett Engineering just closed out the reconstruction of the 2,550-foot long 2-lane Shirk Road in Hartleton Borough of Union County. Shirk is a suburban/rural road in the southwest corner of the Borough. PA DCED Commonwealth Financing Authority awarded a Multimodal Transportation Fund Grant of $251,000 to Hartleton for this project. The Borough would not have been able to construct this project without that funding. Shirk was reconstructed using conventional methods by removing the existing road to subgrade, installing stone subbase plus asphalt base and wearing course pavement. All work is now completed including roadside ditches and reestablishing vegetation. Schlegel Excavating, Inc. did a fine job reconstructing Shirk Road. Check out the final photos!

August 3, 2020 By sfoster

Bassett Engineering has worked extensively with Hartleton Borough in Union County to reconstruct 2,550-foot long 2-lane Shirk Road, a rural road in the southwest corner of the Borough from Laurel Road to the southerly borough boundary. The project used conventional road reconstruction methods by removing the existing roadway to existing subgrade and installing stone subbase and pavement base and wearing courses. Asphalt paving was completed on July 29th! Minor work remains: completing roadside ditches and establishing vegetation. Schlegel Excavating, Inc. was the Contractor and did a fine job.

Bridges and Culverts

October 6, 2014 By Bassett Engineering

We’ve partnered with multiple municipalities to update many bridges and culverts, from full replacement to repair. We also specialize in bridge inspections, completed as the Lycoming County Engineer for their Small Bridge Inspection program and separately for other municipalities. We have engineered a multitude of stormwater management systems, all in conjunction with the environmental permitting required to place an obstruction in a regulated stream. For all projects, we have developed the stream hydrology, calculated the structure’s hydraulics, selected the appropriate structure (bridge, box culvert, pipe, etc.), and secured environmental permitting. Some representative projects include the following.
