Project: The Lagoons Master Plan and Design Project Location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates Project #: 350346 Client: Sama Dubai Project Role: Project Manager Start Date, End Date: 4/2007-12/2007

Project Description: The Lagoons, a unique mixed use development, is part of the Dubai Creek master plan which includes the master planned communities of Old Town, and Wellness Center, as well as the existing wilderness preserve. The Lagoons project is envisioned as a major mixed-use commercial and residential development with recreational and cultural centers consisting of 7 man-made islands, known as the “Pearls”, connected by waterways, roads and bridges. Parsons scope is primarily to design the infrastructure, roads, marinas, waterways, and bridges. The overall construction value for the project will be over $30B+, but Parsons’ portion is only the infrastructure which should be about 5 to 10% of that value. The key features of the infrastructure are:

• Area = 645 HA (1,600 Acres) • Water = 197 Ha (490 Acres) • Revetments Quay Walls = 52,000 m (32 miles) • Marinas = 8 (1,300 Berths • Bridges = 26 (Vehicle and Pedestrian) • Buildings = 95M Square Feet (General Floor Area)

It is estimated that the finished project will accommodate about 125,000 residents, 105,000 workers, and over 70,000 visitors. The Business Pearl is a major development in itself and is one of the


Page: 10

largest and most critical elements of The Lagoons project. The key features of the Business Pearl are:

• 2,765 Apartments • 1,741,480 Square Feet of Retail • 15,608,630 Square Feet of Commercial Office • 4,442 Hotel Rooms • 340 Students Private School

The Business Pearl will account for a majority of the total traffic generated by The Lagoons; therefore, significant efforts are being put into solving the transportation issues intrinsic to the Business Pearl and the distribution of utilities coming onto the island and feeding the various buildings. This very dense development program will be constructed on approximately 111 acres with many of the buildings being over 50 stories in height. The island development will require a seven-level 30,000 space parking structure and commercial vehicle docking zones within a podium structure on the man-made island. The Lagoons is located at the basin of Dubai Creek and will only be accessible via four bridges.

Project Responsibilities: Bruce was responsible for planning and producing the report related to the traffic impact assessment, structural loading criteria, and validation of parking requirements; the planning and review of the conceptual drawings for the roadway network, parking, and infrastructure; and review of the detailed geometric design of the major roadways and ramping systems. He also coordinated among the client, master plan architect, landscape architects, contractor, and various design disciplines.

Bruce worked directly with a subconsultant specialist to address the original plans for the parking structure within the podium which called for very steep ramps that could not adequately accommodate the number of projected vehicle trips for the proposed number of parking spaces.

Of the many challenges addressed was the need to provide express ramps to all parking levels of the podium directly from three of the four bridges. This was required because the levels of peak hour traffic were so high that the planned surface street system could not accommodate all the projected vehicle trips. Working together with the subconsultant specialist, a plan was conceived that provided a flat floor one-way ring road around a central core that can be entered from down ramps on its outside and can be exited to up ramps on its inside. The express up and down ramps were designed so that they would stack in the same volume of space thereby maximizing the amount of flat floor space that would be available for parking. Five secondary ramp systems were also developed that would allow floor-floor access from the surface level through the lowest level. These secondary ramps were proposed as double circular helixes with access to an outer ring road system.

The island is elliptical in shape and as such the parking bays were recommended to be designed in a radial pattern that follows the circumference of the island's shape between the podium’s inner ring road and the edge of the parking structure. Inside the inner ring road the parking bays were recommended to be parallel to the shorter axis of the island and allowed for sloping floor ramps to serve the lowest levels of parking between levels P5 and P7. A 9 meter by 18 meter column grid system was chosen outside of building footprints


Page: 11

to allow for clear span parking and enhanced vehicle circulation and visibility.

Also, recommendations were provided with respect to traffic access that resulted in enhanced access for commercial vehicle traffic to and from the local road system surrounding the island and a traffic management plan that would preclude cut-through traffic from an adjacent island. Project: R777 Creek Crossings Design Project Location: Dubai, United Arab Emirates Project #: 646689 Client: Dubai Municipality Project Role: Project Manager Start Date, End Date: 8/2006-12/2007

A multi-span bridge was proposed to connect Ras Al Khor Crossing Corridor with Nadd Al Hamar Road and provide full navigation clearance for commercial and recreational vessels. The Seventh Crossing Corridor, R777/4, is located just east of the Maktoum Bridge and replaces the Floating Bridge, which was an interim solution to the traffic issues. The Seventh Crossing will included constructing new access roads to improve operations on the roads accessing the Maktoum Bridge and increasing travel speeds on both sides of Dubai Creek. The improvements consisted of constructing a new roadway corridor beginning at Oud Metha Road, running adjacent to Sheikh Rashid Hospital Compound, with a new signalized intersection at Riyadh Street and through the Dubai Creek Park to the new bridge crossing over Dubai Creek and landing at the Road 9 and Baniyas Road intersection. The construction costs of the Sixth and Seventh Crossing Corridors were approximately $1.2 billion and $260 million, respectively.

Project Responsibilities: Bruce was responsible for the overall management, which included the planning and design of various subcontracts. He managed and coordinated preparation of the Preliminary Study and follow-on studies related to the subcontracts, as well as the design staff for submission of the subcontracts.

Project: Muscat Expressway Project Location: Muscat, Oman Project #: 644778 Client: Muscat Municipality Project Role: Area Project Manager Start Date, End Date: 8/2001-4/2002

Project Description: Recognizing the need for a second corridor in the Muscat Capital Area, Muscat Municipality in August 2001 selected Parsons to design and supervise the construction of the 54-kilometer-long Muscat Expressway (previously known as the Southern Expressway). In addition to alleviating traffic congestion along the existing corridor, the new expressway provides access to previously inaccessible areas, complementing the economic growth of the region by opening up new areas for development served by an efficient transportation network. By reducing congestion across the capital area, the project provides socioeconomic and environmental benefits, as it reduces travel times and distances.

Project Responsibilities: The project involved alignment selection and the preparation of planning and design documents. The expressway's alignment started at the Al Qurum Roundabout and extended 52 km west along the foot of the mountains south of Muscat City, then north to the proposed Al Batinah Highway with a temporary at-grade connection to the Al Naseem Roundabout on the Sultan Qaboos Highway. The project included 15 interchanges, several wadi crossings, 44 bridges, and approximately 20 km of cross roads through desert and mountainous terrain. The planning and design for the new Southern Expressway was based on the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials’ 1994 publication, “A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets.”

As the area project manager, Bruce reviewed and analyzed the planned alignment completed by another firm and discovered several design speed related flaws, lack of adequate right of way, as well as the planned horizontal alignment’s close proximity to the only existing main corridor to access Muscat, Sultan Qaboos Highway. Based on these findings and recommendation to re-plan the project alignment, the Muscat Municipality directed Parsons to implement an alignment selection process and report in order to re-establish and document a proper project alignment. In addition to recommending a horizontal alignment, the report covered interchange configurations and design elements, including typical sections, vertical alignments, number of lanes, right-of-way widths, drainage, utilities, pavement markings, signage, lighting, and bridge type selection. Further, he recommended the newly proposed alignment be elevated when crossing a wadi (dried up riverbed, during sudden downpours have lead to flash floods resulting in the flooding of Sultan Qaboos Highway and have been highly dangerous to the residents of Muscat), so as to form a dam in order to control the flash flooding that occurs and protect Sultan Qaboos Highway, as well as the residents of Muscat.
