Playhouse Square Renovation

Traffic Control Projects, November 9, 2020
AWP maintains traffic control as city revitalizes historic theater district

AWP provided safe and efficient traffic control as the city of Cleveland underwent a major renovation project, renovating Playhouse Square. Supporting improvement projects within our communities is always rewarding for our team.

 

Challenge

With 11 stages and 10,000+ seats, Cleveland’s Playhouse Square District is the second-largest unified arts complex in the U.S. Located between the city’s busy Gateway District and Cleveland State University, the theater district underwent a major renovation with $16 million in signage and streetscape improvements. This required extensive traffic control planning, equipment and site safety considerations.

 

Solution

AWP provided efficient re-routing of downtown traffic and secure work zones for contractors to safely operate heavy machinery. We managed all aspects of temporary traffic routes, road closures, road signage and safety equipment.

  • Comprehensive traffic control plan
  • Daily road closures of Euclid Ave. to accommodate crane operations
  • 30+ temporary traffic control signs, type-III barricades and channelizing devices
  • 60+ ADA-compliant pedestrian barricades

 

Results

AWP successfully executed the traffic plan over three months with zero safety issues.
