We are thrilled to announce that Sain Associates has been honored with a National Recognition Award and an Engineering Excellence Award (EEA) from the American Council of Engineering Companies (ACEC) of Alabama for exceptional work on the Will Buechner Parkway project. Named in memory of Auburn police officer Will Buechner, who tragically lost his life in the line of duty, this project stands as a testament to engineering innovation, problem-solving, and positive community impact.
Initiated in 2018 in collaboration with the City of Auburn, the Will Buechner Parkway project spans 1.5 miles, connecting State Route 14 (Martin Luther King Drive) and Richland Road. Designed to address the surging growth on the northwest side of Auburn, the project enhances both vehicular and pedestrian connectivity, serving as a vital artery for the community.
This project aligned seamlessly with the “Auburn 2020 Plan,” contributing to the City’s strategic growth and development objectives. Sain provided comprehensive engineering design, utility services, surveying, and permitting assistance for this project. In addition to the roadway design, the project includes a multi-use trail catering to pedestrian and cyclist needs, further enhancing the community’s connectivity and quality of life.
As we celebrate this milestone achievement, we remain committed to pushing the boundaries of engineering innovation and making a meaningful difference in the communities we serve. The Will Buechner Parkway project will continue to stand as a beacon of excellence and a symbol of our dedication to enhancing connectivity, fostering growth, and preserving the environment for future generations.
