00As subconsultant to CDM, Jacobs Associates is providing the design for the 600-linear foot long twin tunnel undercrossing of the protected wetland at Babel Slough. The tunnel crossing design includes design of the vertical alignment, evaluation of the construction methods, and tunnel and shaft excavation support design in response to geotechnical site conditions. It is anticipated that at the preliminary design slope, the crossing will be constructed using twin-tunnel drives and installed using pipe-jacking methods and a microtunnel boring machine. Jacobs Associates is providing plans, specifications, and cost-estimation documents for the trenchless sections of this project.
