The project includes the reconstruction of around 37km of rural, four-lane interstate over the course of three years. Broken into four distinct work packages, the design-build project includes improvements to ramps and roadways, as well as a number of bridge rehabilitations along the corridor. Michigan Paving & Materials, a CRH Company, won the bid for the project, with construction on the first phase beginning in 2021. The prime contractor looked to heavy civil contractor Hoffman Bros to perform earthwork activities. The first phase of the 1-69 Rebuild project, completed in 2021, included a 14.5km rebuild of the northbound and southbound sides of the interstate from Olivet to Charlotte in Eaton County, as well as reconstruction of two interchanges at Cochran Road and M-50. Based in Battle Creek, Michigan, Hoffman Bros has made effective use of new technology from Trimble to help deliver the project. The firm specialises in site development, underground utility, road, highway and airport construction, employing over 150 and owning over 200 pieces of equipment. |
