Scope Of Work
This project required strategic phasing of operations, crucial schedule management and a lot of manpower. The biggest challenge of this project was maintaining the flow of traffic in the area. Maintenance of traffic on the project consisted of 6 major phases of construction with occasional sub-stages in between. Work activities included drilling and blasting, presplitting, rock excavation, rock fill, embankment, bridge construction, concrete paving and asphalt paving all throughout various phases of the project and adjacent to active roadways. This project also included the first ever design SPUI (Single Point Urban Interchange) in Arkansas which included a 297’ single span plate girder bridge over Hwy 71B.
