Known as the "Bridge of Glass," the 500-ft.-long Chihuly Pedestrian Bridge was constructed as part of Tacoma's downtown revitalization effort and houses more than $12 million worth of sculptural glass. Kiewit worked closely with Burlington Northern Santa Fe, the City of Tacoma, the Washington State Department of Transportation and Chihuly Studio to ensure this $3.9 million project was completed on time.
Completed over 10 months ahead of schedule, the $22 million, 14-mi. I-95 Miami Rehabilitation involved removing and replacing 30-year-old concrete pavement and widening seven bridges. The 10-lane interstate handles over 200,000 vehicles a day.
This $40 million project involved construction of a 7-mi. soundwall next to Miami's busiest freeway, I-95. Most of the work was performed at night to minimize the impact of lane closures.
In February 2003, Gilbert Texas Construction, L.P. was selected to widen and reconstruct approximately 4.5 mi. of the existing IH-30 from east of Loop 12 to Sylvan Ave. to four new lanes each direction. This $98 million project also involves reconstructing 11 bridges and constructing four types of retaining walls.
Due to the wrath of Hurricane Ivan on September 16, 2004, nearly a quarter mile of the two-lane double span I-10 concrete bridge spanning Escambia Bay was torn apart. A joint venture led by Gilbert Southern Corp. quickly responded to the $33 million design-build reconstruction effort amid one of Florida’s hardest hit areas.
In 2004, a Kiewit-led partnership began installing track and switchgear as part of a 35.5 million contract to extend the Montreal metro to Laval. The project, which was completed two months ahead of schedule, also included installing permanent lighting and electrical power.
