As part of the contract, CH2M will develop a corridor study, feasibility study (STEŚ), conceptual design for the selected best option and adjust the model functional and utility program. The feasibility study will compare alternatives based on technical, economic and environmental factors throughout the project location and will include traffic analysis to reach an optimal design version of the route.
