Doyle Drive/Presidio Parkway

San Francisco, California, United States

Client: San Francisco County Transportation Authority & California Department of Transportation

Parsons Brinckerhoff Role: Strategic Consulting

Show Project Details

San Francisco’s Doyle Drive is being replaced by a new road with a new name, Presidio Parkway. It will be a six-lane parkway with wider lanes, including a bus lane. The parkway will have a high viaduct, two short tunnels, and a low causeway over a depressed cross street. The parkway will have wide landscaped medians and continuous shoulders. Phase I of the project is scheduled for completion in late 2011 under traditional design-bid-build contracts. Parsons Brinckerhoff has been providing general engineering and design consultant services in joint venture under a task order contract with the San Francisco County Transportation Authority.

Phase II of the project will be delivered via a public-private partnership, the first to be delivered under legislation passed by the California state government in 2009.

Parsons Brinckerhoff is advising the San Francisco County Transportation Authority and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) on the design-build-finance-operate-maintain procurement backed by availability payments (the first project of its kind in California). Parsons Brinckerhoff is developing the terms and conditions of the concession contract, including all technical requirements and acting as lead technical advisor to Caltrans. A concessionaire, which will build, operate, and maintain the parkway for 33 years, has been selected.

About Strategic Consulting

Changing infrastructure priorities, ongoing market reforms, aging assets, emerging technologies, new political mandates and uncertain economic conditions make managing an efficient and sustainable organization a complex task.

Parsons Brinckerhoff provides strategic consulting services to help clients solve business and operational problems throughout the entire business cycle and set the foundation for project delivery. Leaders of infrastructure businesses, whether public or private, face the challenges and opportunities of identifying needs, developing concepts, determining feasibility, gaining permits, delivering and then operating projects. These leaders recognize the need for assistance to solve problems prior to, during, and after projects are delivered.

In the course of helping clients with these challenges, Parsons Brinckerhoff leverages our technical expertise in infrastructure, our client knowledge, and our local presence. By integrating both strategic and technical expertise, Parsons Brinckerhoff gets to know the “whole client” from the executive leadership to the managers who deliver the projects.

Parsons Brinckerhoff creates value for clients by providing deep industry understanding and knowledge, access to senior management with operational experience, rather than just consulting experience, and a fully integrated package of services across a project’s complete lifecycle. These factors result in high quality products and sound advice for our clients that are good value for money.
