Holland Engineering has a long history of assisting the City of Grand Rapids with our land surveying services for a variety of street reconstruction projects. Since 1984, Holland Engineering has been assisting the City of Grand Rapids with topographic surveys and to date, we have performed over 25 topographic surveys for the City. As Michigan's second largest city, it is home to over 188,000 inhabitants and despite much of Michigan's significant economic downturn; Grand Rapids has seen steady growth throughout the last several decades. Many of the reconstruction projects that HEI has assisted with have been in inner city locations creating significant improvements to the community and surrounding areas.

In addition to typical surveying services, projects have required significant amounts of research involving old survey records with underground combined sewers. The projects have also required researching old utility records to assist in determining the location of connectivity of underground utilities, particularly combined sewers. HEI has often worked alongside with Kent County Archives to locate and research these needed records.

HEI is currently assisting the City with a topographic survey of Jefferson Avenue between Fulton and Cherry. Earlier this year, HEI provided a topographic survey of Burton Street between Eastern and Plymouth. HEI has been pleased for the opportunity to assist Grand Rapids with growth and maintenance of their roadway infrastructure and continues to look forward to future opportunities.
