Californian contractor Granite has won the $116.9m West Davis Corridor contract from the Utah Department of Transportation to extend the recently completed highway by 4.8km.
Located in West Point, Utah, the extension aims to improve traffic flows and connectivity for the northern Davis County area.
The extension requires Granite to build nine new bridges and two pedestrian crossings, and to lay some 70,000 tons of asphalt paving. It will also place more than a million cubic yards of borrow material and 350,000 tons of mechanically stabilised earth.
Jason Klaumann, Granite’s regional vice president, said: “This project represents an important step in continuing the buildout of the West Davis Corridor, improving access and mobility for the growing northern Davis County region.
“It aligns with our core strengths in structures, paving, and materials, and our home market strategy.”
