United States : Transportation Commission awards $13 million in highway contracts in July
Publish Date : 01-Aug-2018
The Wyoming Department of Transportation will soon begin slide stabilization repair work on the Chief Joseph Scenic Highway (WYO 296) in Park County.
The Wyoming Transportation Commission awarded a $5.5 million contract to Oftedal Construction Inc., of Casper, to add 280,000 cubic yards of material at the bottom of the slide to stabilize it.
The material will counterbalance the slide to prevent it from moving. Crews will also replace guardrail and repair portions of the road that the slide damaged.
Currently the road is down to one lane of travel. The contract completion date for WYO 296 is June 30, 2019.
Other contracts the commission awarded included bridge repairs, pavement resurfacing, sign installation and pavement widening.
JTL Group Inc., of Cheyenne, won a $2.1 million contract for bridge work on Horse Creek (WYO 211) in Laramie County. Crews will remove the old timber bridge, install piping and build a road on top of it. The contract completion date is June 30, 2019.
Simon Contractors, of Cheyenne, was the low bidder on a $2 million road widening project on WYO 110 at the junction of WYO 24 and Devils Tower in Crook County.
Crews will add 8-foot shoulders on both sides of WYO 110, install a turning lane and install a second lane going into Devils Tower National Monument. The work will prevent traffic from backing up onto WYO 24. The contract completion date is June 30, 2019.
The commission awarded S & S Builders, of Gillette, a $1.1 million contract for bridge work at several locations in Big Horn and Crook counties.
Crews will perform erosion work, channel changes and minor structural repairs on five bridges. The contract completion date is Aug. 31, 2019.
