Building a Better Future Today

As one of the first major design-build projects in Illinois, the Houbolt Road Extension project supports economic advancement and improves regional road safety by providing a more efficient route for the largest inland port in the country. This new toll bridge connection allows for significantly reduced emissions through less idling of truck traffic and substantially shorter travel distance, supports economic and job growth, and leverages an innovative private funding method for construction and operation of the bridge.

The Eastrail NE 8th Street Crossing project in downtown Bellevue, Washington, is a key part of King County Park's Eastrail program, which will convert 42 miles of former railroad tracks into a multipurpose trail, connecting communities in the eastern suburbs of Seattle. The NE 8th Street Crossing includes a signature bridge span, which provides pedestrian and bicycle access over the busy street. The six-span, steel-truss bridge ensures accessibility and connectivity with a new light rail station, local businesses, and hospitals.

The State Route 20 Omega Curve Realignment project was a Caltrans safety improvement project to realign two curves along the highway that were prone to accidents. This large earthwork project included new alignment of the roadway, widening of existing alignment of the roadway, drainage improvements, and wildlife safety improvements.

The Deer Creek Reservoir, along the Provo River in western Wasatch County, Utah, facilitates water supply for over 1.5 million people, is one of the most used recreational ecosystems in Utah, and is vital to the state’s future growth and sustainability. Components of the Deer Creek Dam, built over 80 years ago, had exceeded their designed service life and needed to be modified, refurbished, or replaced. Additions to the existing infrastructure will allow for improved flexibility in future operations and maintenance of the dam. The Deer Creek Intake project aimed to find innovative construction methods to allow for maintenance without draining the reservoir, thereby minimizing disruption to water storage that supports the region’s water needs.

The McFarland Solar Project, which will provide renewable energy to the Phoenix, Arizona area, is Granite Industrial’s largest solar project to date. Phase A (250 MW) of the project was completed in Spring 2023, and Phase B (375 MW) is expected to be completed in Spring 2024.
