HEAVY CIVIL $15 MILLION AND UNDER


Seca Start/Finish Bridge and Overlay Project” Granite contracted with the County of Monterey to construct the Laguna Seca Start/Finish Bridge and Overlay project. Second only to the renowned Corkscrew and Andretti Hairpin turn, the Start/Finish Bridge is a preeminent feature of the historic Laguna Seca Raceway on California’s central coast. Te project upgraded the existing wood start/finish line bridge with a new wider


steel truss bridge and provided improved ADA-compliant access to the paddock area. Additional scope included new lighting, storm drainage improvements, MSE and cast-in-place concrete retaining walls, rumble strip upgrades, and replacement of the entire track surface with specialized asphalt concrete, among other things. Tis project had a challenging timeline of 207 calendar days. Te project team needed to frequently adjust its workflow to accommodate complex ma- terial procurement schedules, incomplete drainage, electrical and cladding designs, unsuitable subgrade, and historic rain events and flooding. Trough strong collaboration with the County, increased work shifts and other solu- tions, Granite successfully completed the project without any unscheduled disruptions to track operations and with zero OSHA recordables. Also selected as finalists in this category were Myers & Sons Construction


for “City of Richmond, Veolia Water West Operating Services, and West County Wastewater District SBS Facility Improvements” and Griffith Company for “Te Port of Los Angeles Alameda Corridor Southern Terminus Gap Closure Project.”
