Seymour Johnson Air Force Base-Berkeley Gate Construction

Berkeley Gate is the primary Installation Entry Control Point and runs 24/7 operations. It is used by Privately Operated Vehicles and visitors and experiences high volumes of traffic during peak hours. There are two inbound and two outbound lanes, the second Inbound lane is only used during peak hours. In its current configuration, the entry control point does not meet Security Forces requirements critical to the safety of the installation. New configuration of the entry control point should contain all threat scenarios Outlines in Unified Facilities Criteria 4-022-01 and Surface Deployment and Distribution Command Transportation Engineering Agency Pamphlet 55-15. Demolish and remove existing wedge style Active Vehicle Barriers, pavement, concrete curbs, sidewalk, and passive vehicle barrier. Construct new roadway that meets requirements for all Response Zone Threat Scenarios, to include roadway lighting, concrete curbing, and sidewalks. New roadway will provide Security Forces personnel with turn around/denial/exit points for unauthorized vehicles. Install new Active Vehicle Barriers for final denial and passive barrier system along inbound and outbound lanes. The Active Vehicle Barrier system will be a Net system rated to contain threat vehicles at max velocity allowed by geometric design. The Passive Vehicle Barrier will be a brick veneer knee wall and extend along all new roadway. It will contain threat vehicles as define in Unified Facilities Criteria 4-022-01 and be consistent with the installation’s exterior architectural standards. Construct a Privately Operated Vehicle search area located within the access control zone, which provides an enclosed, Architectural Barriers Act compliant shelter/waiting area for vehicle occupants removed from vehicle during search operations, and vertical screens/canopy for search area. Construct an overwatch facility near the end of the Response Zone at the Active Vehicle Barrier location. Overwatch should be constructed in accordance with Installation Facilities Standards and Unified Facilities Criteria 4-022-01. Construct one parking spot at overwatch location for a Security Forces vehicle. The Construction of Seymour Johnson Air Force Base`s new main gate located in Wayne County, Goldsboro, North Carolina.
