Thanks to partnering, the Highway 70 Widening project was successfully completed within 96 days and with zero recordable safety incidents!
The first of five phases with a tight original timeline of 102 days, the Caltrans and Teichert Construction project team took several innovative opportunities to improve construction site safety, resulting in a decrease in the original cost of the stagework as well as an increase in the safety of their team working on-site and the public. With 100,000 cubic yards of roadway excavation to be completed and replaced in a matter of 20 days, the team successfully completed this feat through vigilant communication and extensive but timely quality assurance and quality control testing.
