SmartPGH_Early_Action_-_Construction_Plans_.pdf

These construction drawings are for the SmartPGH Early Action Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) project in the City of Pittsburgh's Central Business District, Allegheny County, prepared by Whitman, Requardt & Associates, LLP. The plans detail the installation of a comprehensive fiber optic communication infrastructure, including 96-count fiber optic cable trunk lines connecting various key locations such as the Traffic Management Center (TMC), Armstrong Tunnel Hub, City County Building, and other strategic points. The project involves installing new conduits, fiber optic cables, splice locations, junction boxes, and related communication equipment across multiple city streets including Forbes Avenue, First Avenue, Grant Street, and Boulevard of the Allies.

The technical drawings provide detailed schematics for fiber optic termination, cable routing, hub cabinet configurations, and network connectivity specifications. The project appears to be part of a broader smart city initiative to enhance urban communication infrastructure, with precise engineering details for cable installation, splicing, and integration with existing utility systems. The plans include comprehensive documentation such as cable schedules, conduit path details, and installation notes, indicating a sophisticated approach to developing a robust urban communication network. The drawings are signed and dated in June 2024, suggesting an upcoming implementation of this technological infrastructure upgrade for the City of Pittsburgh.
