Granite Awarded $12 Million Roadway Construction Project in California’s Central Valley
Granite (NYSE:GVA) announced it has been awarded a $12 million contract for the Oakhurst Midtown Connector project by the County of Madera in Oakhurst, California. The contract was included in Granite's third quarter 2020 backlog.
By constructing a new two-lane road connecting State Route 41 with Indian Springs Road/High School Road, in Oakhurst, traffic congestion from Highway 41 to Road 426 will be alleviated. Granite will be responsible for the construction of the new roadway, cast-in-place box girder bridge over Nelder Creek, bike lanes, sidewalks, and two signalized intersections.
“We look forward to working with Madera County on this project to help mitigate traffic congestion and provide a safe path for pedestrians and cyclists,” said Granite Area Manager Jeff Grimm. “The project will also benefit from the internal joint venture between our Granite Fresno and Bakersfield teams.”
Construction is underway and expected to be complete in spring 2022.
