As the home of more than 392,000 residents and United States’ military personnel stationed at Fort Liberty (formerly Fort Bragg) in its metropolitan area, Fayetteville, N.C., is a vibrant, growing city about an hour south of Raleigh along Interstate 95.

It also is a town often plagued with traffic congestion and accidents, and no Fayetteville roadway better exemplifies that than Raeford Road/U.S. Highway 401, an eastwest thoroughfare that runs through the city’s west side and routinely sees about 30,000 cars and trucks traveling on it each day.

Steamrolled By BABA Rollback?

Federal Highway Administration Officially Eliminates Its Domestic Manufacturing Waiver On Federally Funded Projects In mid-January, FHWA published a final rule on the 1983 waiver of the regulation on the use of Americanmanufactured products on federal projects. The waiver limited application of the agency’s Buy America requirements to iron and steel. That allowed contractors on FHWA projects to seek other products from foreign sources. And that waiver flies in the face of former President Joe Biden’s goal to boost domestic manufacturing in transportation.

Hitachi Excavators Help Build $3.9B Bridge-Tunnel in Va.

By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Crews began onsite work more than four years ago to build the largest highway construction project in Virginia’s history. When they are finished, the result promises to have a major effect on vehicle traffic in the populous and often-congested Tidewater area of the state.

In 2019, in an effort to increase capacity, ease major congestion and enhance travel time reliability, construction started on the $3.9 billion expansion of the 3.5-mi.-long Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel (HRBT).

To reach the project’s goals, a team of U.S. and European contractors are collaborating to widen the current four-lane segments along almost 10 mi. of the Interstate 64 corridor in Norfolk and Hampton and dig new twin tunnels to create eight lanes across Hampton Roads, one of the world’s largest natural harbors where three major rivers, including the James, come together just west of the mouth of Chesapeake Bay. The massive job is being done on behalf of the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) by Hampton Roads Connector Partners (HRCP), an international construction joint venture that includes Dragados USA, a subsidiary of its Spanish parent company, two France-based firms — Vinci Construction Grands Projects, and Dodin Campenon Bernard — and Flatiron Constructors, headquartered in Colorado, one of the U.S.’s top infrastructure contractors.

A second joint venture of engineers and designers is also working on the effort, made up of HDR Inc., a worldwide engineering firm based in Omaha, Neb., and Mott MacDonald, a company headquartered in the United Kingdom.

In addition to the new tunnel construction, the HBRT project will replace five bridge structures, widen another 20, build new marine trestles, and install a drivable shoulder lane in each direction between Norfolk and Hampton.

Although originally projected to be completed in late 2025, VDOT said that delays have pushed the bridge-tunnel expansion to either 2026 or 2027.

Gigantic Tunnel Boring Machine Hard at Work The state transportation agency entered into a design-build contract with HRCP four years ago to expand the I-64 tunnel, which first opened in 1957 as an immersed tube connecting two human-made islands and linking Hampton, on the north shore, to Norfolk on the south, via trestle bridges.

The new project is expanding the I-64 HRBT by adding a new pair of two-lane tun-

nels, each 8,000 ft. in length, which will link the existing North and South islands — also being broadened to handle the new lanes — with trestle bridges off the shores of Hampton and Norfolk.

The tunnels are currently being carved under the seabed with a 46-ft. diameter tunnel boring machine (TBM), according to the construction joint venture. The 430-ft.-long, 4,700-ton behemoth is powered by up to 16 electric motors, with its main drive delivering over 7,500 hp. Depending on soil conditions, the project’s builders noted, it is expected to mine up to 50 ft. per day.

“The TBM actually bores and places segment linings as it goes,” said Megan Pym, project manager of the construction’s joint venture and an employee of Flatiron. “As it progresses, because of the soil present, the TBM also injects a slurry mix into the ground to help strengthen the tunnel before

“At least for me, the scale of it is unlike anything I have ever seen before, and we are all proud to be a part of it.”

Work Under Way to Finish South Island Expansion Pym’s team was given the critical task of enlarging the artificial islands where the I-64 roadway enters into and emerges out of the I-64 tunnel.

Their initial work began on the North Island near Hampton, she noted, by building 14 acres onto the existing structure, a job completed in 2022. To do so, the construction team brought in thousands of tons of rock, most of it on floating barges, and used Hitachi excavators to lift and place the material in the water to increase the island’s volume.

Starting in spring 2024, they began building the South Island off the Norfolk coast, a

we come in with our crews to build the roadways and the walls.”

The 21,492 segment linings slated to be placed in the tunnels are cast in Cape Charles, Va., on the eastern shore of the bay, and are sent to the project site by barge.

As it moves along, the TBM will reach a depth of 101 ft. under the seabed — channel depth is 72 ft.

The scale of the Hampton Roads BridgeTunnel expansion project is so immense that even a veteran construction professional like Pym is in awe of its size.

“Not only is it quite large due to the size of the contract, but it is also impressive when you consider the scope of the work,” she described from her office near the work site.

smaller structure encompassing only 3 acres, but one that is much more complex than the one to the north, Pym said.

“That is because it is scheduled to take almost double the amount of time due to unique challenges that involve not only the tunnel construction but also bridge structures all coming together in one small area,” she said.

It was from the South Island that the TBM started its work in 2023 while slowly heading for the North Island, where Pym said a receiving pit was built to meet the machine.

Once the boring machine arrives, crews rotate it on a turntable and drive it back to the south to complete the tunneling process. The project’s slurry treatment plant is also found

on the South Island.

A unique set of challenges were put in front of Pym’s team as they planned their work on expanding the artificial islands in the middle of Hampton Roads.

The most critical was fitting the needed construction equipment into a tight working space while also being extremely cautious about keeping her crew safe as they worked just feet away from the live I-64 traffic driving past on a temporary bridge. Another was putting safeguards in place to make sure the work could be performed without harm to people and machines on the water, where unpredictable winds and currents can become a hazard.

“All those normal construction challenges seem to be magnified because we are also working next to the tunneling team, which is bringing in slurry barges, and transporting the segment linings to the site,” according to Pym. “We have an entire marine logistics group that sits next door to help us coordinate all these barge moves, and equipment transports on the water, and there is a second group that does the same for the land work as well.”

If that were not enough for her team to keep in mind, Pym noted that the existing tunnel’s medium electric voltage line runs through the area where her team works, “so our Hitachi operators have to work very carefully.”

Hitachi, Hills Machinery Dependable Project Partners The one thing Pym does not have to worry about is the reliability of the Hitachi excavators that HRCP acquired from Hills Machinery, the Charleston, S.C.-based equipment dealer well known in four Southern states, including Virginia.

In fact, the construction team’s decision to use the highly maneuverable and rugged Hitachi 890LC-6 and 1200-7B to expand each island has proven to be an inspired choice, she added, due to the tight quarters within which their operators must work.

“These machines work well here because of the unique nature of the area where we have the road traffic, the tunnel, and its approaches to the north of us, plus the new bridge structures coming in. That means we need this specialty equipment in order to place rock from a very confined space. They are very large pieces of equipment, yet these excavators give us more maneuverability,” she said.

Before choosing Hills Machinery to supply it with the Hitachi machines, HRCP did its due diligence and spoke to other dealers, but Pym said that in the end, the decision to go with Hills and Hitachi came down not just to cost, but quality. see HITACHI page 62

The Right Team Equipped With the Best Tools Paragon Site Solutions LLC Provides Turnkey Sitework Services for Large-Scale Projects Throughout Charlotte Metro Area

Stephen McCarthy, owner and president

With a BOMAG BC 473 EB-5 soil compactor, an operator passes over material at a job site.

Wallace West, logistics manager

Specializing in subdivisions and commercial work around Charlotte, N.C., Paragon Site Solutions LLC has carved out a niche by providing turnkey projects. To ensure that every project meets the company’s quality and schedule standards, Paragon focuses on a select few customers at a time and controls most project aspects, outsourcing only thermoplastic striping for highway roadwork.

“By keeping most operations in-house, we can offer more accurate bidding and maintain higher quality control,” said Stephen McCarthy, who founded Paragon in 2017 and serves as the company’s owner and president. “We offer clearing, grading, utilities, paving asphalt, soil stabilization, directional drilling and rock crushing. This approach allows us to understand and manage costs more effectively than our competitors.”

With a workforce of approximately 300 employees, Paragon is well-suited to handle large-scale developments and generates more than $100 million in revenue annually.

“We’ve been fortunate to experience consistent growth due to the quality of our customers and projects,” McCarthy said. “Our average project we target is usually over 100 acres. Our equipment is designed for larger projects, which enables us to achieve greater efficiencies. We focus about 80 percent of our work on residential subdivisions and 20 percent on commercial projects. We prefer multiphase projects that allow us to expedite schedules, helping customers build houses or move into commercial spaces faster.”

Operating primarily within the Charlotte metropolitan area, Paragon covers Mooresville to Rock Hill and Union County to Gaston County.

“Our goal is to stay within this region to maintain our high standards and strong client relationships,” McCarthy said.

Paragon’s success is attributed to a combination of great customers, the right team and top-notch equipment.

“We believe in putting the right people in place and

equipping them with the best tools to execute their tasks efficiently,” McCarthy said. “Our customers benefit from this investment, as it ensures we deliver high-quality results on time.”

New BOMAG, Secmair Equipment For Paragon’s utility and grading operations, the company relies heavily on BOMAG equipment, such as a BC 473 EB-5 soil compactor and a BW 219 DH-5 single drum roller.

“We use BOMAG for a range of tasks, from utility work with jumping jacks and trench rollers to grading with sheepsfoot, smooth drum, static and vibratory rollers,” McCarthy said. “BOMAG’s equipment has proven to be reliable and efficient, helping us maintain high standards in all divisions.

The static rollers, in particular, allow us to work in a wider range of soil conditions, giving us the flexibility to handle various environments. This adaptability is crucial for maintaining productivity across different project sites.”

Paragon recently acquired a Secmair topsprayer for its paving operations, which has significantly enhanced productivity.

“We have multiple paving crews, and our traditional tack trucks and tack wagons weren’t keeping up,” said McCarthy.

“We enjoy the quality and the technology that allows us to dramatically increase our production in getting surfaces ready and prepped, meeting the DOT standards that are required.”

The technological advancements on the Secmair topsprayer have also helped improve operator safety and precision.

“It allows us to adjust spray patterns and fluid return on the fly,” McCarthy explained. “This ensures a higher quality product and greater safety on-site. The DOT’s recognition of this technology also boosts our credibility on their projects.”

Cat Trial 14: After Hours Demonstrates Company’s Legacy Caterpillar’s unwavering commitment to customer success has been a driving force for a century. As the celebrates its 100th anniversary, it continues to innovate, adapt and evolve, always looking forward to the next challenge, the manufacturer said.

Cat Trial 14: After Hours brings Cat equipment from past and present to life in a nighttime spectacle. This visual display demonstrates how the company has stood side by side with its customers for 100 years, and how it is digging in for the decades to come.

Legacy Of Equipment, Manufacturing Innovation The roots of Caterpillar’s innovative spirit can be traced back to before the 1920s, with the groundbreaking work of Holt Manufacturing Company and C. L. Best Gas Traction Company.

Following World War I, these two companies found themselves at a crossroads. The market was flooded with surplus machines, depressing demand for new tractors. Best brought to the table a strong domestic market presence, an advanced dealer network, and a diverse product line. Holt contributed its worldwide reputation, the iconic “Caterpillar” name, and state-of-the-art manufacturing facilities.

Their merger in 1925 laid the foundation for what Caterpillar is today.

Throughout the past century, Caterpillar expanded globally and worked inventively to benefit worldwide customers. For example, the company introduced game-changing products such as the D10 track-type tractor with an elevated sprocket design and the 797 mining truck. Plus, it embraced technological advancements in multiple ways, such as introducing an autonomous mining truck in 1996 to help customers increase job-site safety.

And now, as the company celebrates its centennial in 2025, it introduces a line of Limited Edition Centennial Grey paint machines, represented by the Cat Centennial D3 Dozer in Cat Trial 14: After Hours, as a testament to its enduring legacy.

The Cat Trial 14 video also features other noteworthy machines, including the versatile Cat TH1255 Telehandler and a one-of-a-kind, real-life Power Loader, built by Hacksmith Entertainment, based on the iconic, futuristic machine from a popular movie franchise.

Cat Trial 14: After Hours showcases a power display that features industrial, marine products and electric power that meet worldwide power needs in an impactful way.

Caterpillar History: Past, Present, Future Cat Trial 14: After Hours showcases a power display that features industrial, marine products and electric power that meet worldwide power needs in an impactful way.

“If we were to aggregate all of Caterpillar’s current genset power, it would be enough to power the entire country of Brazil — the world’s seventh-largest consumer of power, with a population of 214 million,” the company said.

“All of these power offerings are part of our broader strategy to support customers where, when and how they need power to get the job done.”

Global Reach Supported By Vast Dealer Network Caterpillar’s worldwide presence has been a cornerstone of its success since the early days, when its heavy-equipment models began making their mark around the world.

In 1908, the first Holt Manufacturing Company gasoline-powered “Caterpillar” tracktype tractor was sold, quickly finding its way across the globe. By 1914, Caterpillar machines were introduced in Asia, with the first units sold in Indonesia for plowing sugarcane fields. Soon after, customers in India and Japan were experiencing the benefits of the products.

Today, the Cat dealer network covers more than 190 countries with nearly 170,000 Cat dealer employees worldwide. Many of these dealerships are independent, family owned businesses, and some even predate Caterpillar’s 1925 founding.

The average Cat dealership worldwide boasts over 50 years of experience.

Committed To CustomersÊ Success “As we celebrate the past, we also look toward the future — and we will continue to help our valued customers do the work in which they excel. Our commitment to them is unwavering, as evidenced by our substantial investment in research and development,” the company said.

“In the 2023 financial year alone, Caterpillar allocated $2.1 billion to R&D to ensure that our engineers are constantly innovating and anticipating future trends. This proactive approach ensures that when our customers need new solutions, we’re not just ready — we’re ahead of the curve. That’s what they count on.

“With Cat Trial 14: After Hours, we celebrate our customer’s success by spotlighting the rich history of cutting-edge solutions. In full support of them, we will continue to shape the future of the industries we serve for the next hundred years and beyond.

Collapse Delays NCDOT’s Plan to Reopen Storm-Damaged I-40 Since Hurricane Helene devastated parts of western North Carolina in late September, the response from the state’s Department of Transportation (NCDOT) has been relentless.

Agency crews have worked hundreds of thousands of hours to help North Carolina’s mountainous region recover from the most destructive storm in state history. Everyone in the department, from every county in the state, has assisted or sacrificed in some way to help western North Carolina, NCDOT said in a Jan. 8 news release.

“It’s been a major team effort, and teamwork is one of the most important organizational values we have at NCDOT,” explained Division 11 Engineer Michael Poe. “I can’t think of a better example of this value than the way our folks have responded to this disaster.”

The magnitude of the destruction was staggering — more than 9,200 damage sites, and more than 1,400 roads closed since the storm roared through the state on Sept. 2627.

Now, more than 100 days later, due to the efforts of NCDOT employees, leadership, contract partners and crews from other states, those numbers and those roads look drastically different. More than 85 percent of the roads have reopened and only about 185 roadway sections remain closed.

Additional Collapse On I-40 Causes Setback By far the highest profile highway that sustained severe damage as a result of Helene was Interstate 40 in the far western portion of North Carolina, near the Tennessee border. The roadway is one of America’s key transportation arteries, moving people and freight from coast to coast and to all points in between.

However, the I-40 roadway in North Carolina’s Haywood County was built in an extremely rugged part of the mountains, with the Pigeon River on one side and high rockfaces on the other.

Flooding from the remnants of Helene turned the river into a raging torrent after the storm dumped almost 2 ft. of rain in the area, following several days of precipitation from a previous rain event. Together, the floodwaters from the two storms ate away the I-40 roadbed, causing the partial collapse of the highway in several places. The two eastbound lanes were washed away, and a landslide also crashed onto part of the freeway.

After surveying the damaged road, NCDOT engineers and contractors initially focused on reopening the interstate by Jan. 1, 2025. Work progressed apace toward that goal until a few days before Christmas when an additional chunk of asphalt fell away from an eastbound lane of I-40 in the gorge, put-

ting the interstate’s reconstruction further behind.

According to NCDOT, the new damage will keep the highway closed until transportation and geotechnical engineers deem the area safe for drivers to be in a narrow, two-lane pattern in the gorge.

“It is an unfortunate situation,” explained NCDOT Division 14 Engineer Wanda Payne. “It’s a new hurdle that we have to overcome in order to provide a safe facility for the travelling public.”

Wet weather and freeze-thaw conditions both contributed to the latest slide on I-40, she added.

Geotechnical engineers were quickly onsite to determine a solution to stabilize the new location. It will include using additional soil nails similar to those at 10 other damaged locations along the highway in Haywood County. Experts will continue to monitor the location as NCDOT works through the winter season and will recommend additional stabilization if necessary.

Wright Brothers Construction, located in Charleston, Tenn., along with Coloradobased GeoStabilization International, a subcontractor expert at rockfall mitigation, was awarded the $8.5 million contract to stabilize the eastbound lanes and create a safe passage for one lane in each direction from Harmon Den to the state line.

After the latest collapse, NCDOT staff worked with Wright Brothers Construction on a supplemental agreement for the new repairs. Terms of the deal were not announced.

PBS North Carolina reported that the contractors are stabilizing over a mile of I-40 by driving long steel nails, which resemble rods, into the bedrock below the road. The nails are

spaced close together and filled with grout that adheres the rods to the rock. Concrete is then sprayed on the cliff face to hold them in place and create a solid wall to prevent against landslides.

In a news release, NCDOT engineers explained that the process also will stabilize the roadway and provide space for vehicles to travel at 40 mph in one lane in each direction over 9 mi. of the Pigeon River Gorge.

The road will be narrow, roughly 11 ft. wide, which is about a foot narrower than the federal interstate standard and accounts for the lower speed limit.

NCDOT hopes the road can be opened as soon as possible. However, the timing depends on when contractors can fix the December collapse, as well as finish stabilizing the protection wall, and install a concrete barrier down the middle of the road.

“We are optimistic that our contract partners can complete the work, establish one narrow lane in each direction and create a safe work zone for the long-term restoration,” according to Payne. “We are working to open I-40 when it is safe, and it will be tight conditions for everybody. But if everybody is patient, everybody can get through.”

Long-term reconstruction plans for fixing the damaged portion of I-40 through the Pigeon River Gorge are still being developed.

NCDOT has hired RK&K in Baltimore as the project’s engineering/design firm; Minnesota-based Ames Construction, which has a Charlotte office, as the heavy civil contractor; and HNTB as the project manager through the nationwide company’s Charlotte location.

NCDOT has not announced a timeframe for the selection of a design, a date for the

start of construction, or a general estimate of the cost.

“Everybody has been coming up with ideas and all good solutions are still on the table,” Payne noted. “We will collaboratively choose the best long-term solution.”

Crews Brave Winter Weather to Rebuild Other Highways In other parts of the North Carolina mountains, efforts also are ongoing by NCDOT to restore the obliterated U.S. Highway 64/74A corridor beside the Rocky Broad River through the communities of Bat Cave and Chimney Rock in Henderson and Rutherford counties. In addition, crews are fixing two heavily-damaged roadways, U.S. 19W and U.S. 197, that were flooded by the Cane and Nolichucky rivers in Yancey County following the hurricane’s rampage through that area.

NCDOT and its contractors have constructed a temporary road between Bat Cave and Chimney Rock that serves local residents, provides emergency access, and will be utilized as contractors rebuild new road from bedrock, the agency said.

In Yancey County, gravel roads have been established creating connections to every community, and Division 13 engineers are developing contracts for each of the highways that require rebuilding.

“I believe in our folks, and I believe in their character, honor, and the wherewithal to get things done,” Payne said in NCDOT’s Jan. 8 news release. “In the next few months, we will see a lot of activity that will finish what we’ve accomplished thus far and move into areas where we’ve not been able to move from temporary to permanent access.” 

Liebherr Expands Hampton Roads Manufacturing Capabilities

The Newport News location has played a crucial role in fulfilling the growing demand for Liebherr products both locally and globally since Liebherr’s expansion to North America in 1970.

From demolition to groundwork and crane lifts, Liebherr equipment plays an integral role in every phase of the upgrade and expansion project at Liebherr’s mining truck manufacturing facility in Hampton Roads, Va. The Newport News location has played a crucial role in fulfilling the growing demand for Liebherr products both locally and globally since Liebherr’s expansion to North America in 1970. Newport News, recognized as one of the seven cities within Hampton Roads, offers a strategic position as a port city with access to intermodal shipping routes and a bustling economic environment.

The manufacturing plant is dedicated to producing Liebherr’s range of diesel electric mining trucks handling payloads of up to 400 tons. These large machines are partly assembled, tested and certified at the Newport News plant. Complete assembly is then carried out at mines all over the world.

In response to the global demand for mining trucks, Liebherr has partnered with several Hampton Road’s contractors to begin expansion of the production facilities. Due to the range of applications required for the project, Liebherr machines have been the choice of equipment to handle the diverse and demanding tasks in the different phases. From spe-

cialized demolition machines to heavy lift mobile cranes and a variety of earthmoving equipment, the current demolition and construction plans are projected to be completed by the end of 2025.

To kick off this large-scale project, the plant annex needed to be torn down to make room for the new 80,000 sq. ft. addition. Turnkey demolition provider East Coast Demolition brought in its Liebherr R 936 Compact crawler excavator to sort, pick, load out and process all steel, debris and other materials removed.

“The biggest challenge is performing demolition next to a live plant and the active construction work that is happening around the demo site,” said Ricky Webb, COO of East Coast Demolition. “The Liebherr R 936 Compact crawler excavator is a smooth and balanced machine equipped with the demolition guarding and protection making it safe to run in a high-risk environment.”

Demo Days The R 936 Compact crawler excavator is easy to maneuver and operate, allowing for a safer working environment for East Coast Demolition project sites. With its tight radius, this

machine is especially well suited for job sites with many other moving machines. For example, the crawler excavator had to operate around multiple drill rigs, cranes and earthmoving equipment assisting with the demo and construction of the facilities.

Setting Standard Once most of the demo is done, three main structural trusses weighing 30,000 lbs. each had to be removed from the back of the production plant. Due to the precise coordination and crucial movements to complete a safe demolition, Prillaman’s Crane and Rigging Inc. was brought in and utilized a Liebherr LTM 1090-4.2 mobile crane and an LTM 1250-5.1 mobile crane. These mobile cranes provided a flexible and agile solution to assist with heavy lifting.

Prillaman noted the high-quality cranes and longstanding relationship with Liebherr aided in their decision to continually use Liebherr products. On a daily basis, Prillaman uses Liebherr LTMs on various crane, rigging and heavy haul projects including building ships, mining trucks, ac units, trains and more. see LIEBHERR page 64

Volvo Trucks Taps AI for Adaptive Maintenance, Uptime Volvo Trucks North America has unveiled significant enhancements to its Blue Service Contract, a dealer-managed preventive maintenance solution designed to maximize fleet uptime and efficiency.

Powered by proprietary artificial intelligence (AI) models, the adaptive maintenance system adjusts service intervals dynamically based on factors such as fuel consumption, idle time and oil samples.

This data-driven approach replaces traditional static intervals with customized and optimized schedules, ensuring the right maintenance at the right time. By consolidating services into fewer planned stops, the system maximizes uptime for customers and keeps trucks on the road longer.

The announcement was made at the American Trucking Associations’ (ATA) 2024 Management Conference & Exhibition in Nashville, Tenn.

With the highly adaptive Blue Service Contract, customers benefit with service schedule optimization, bundling services into one stop, leading to reduced operating costs. Conversely, if a truck has seen unusually demanding conditions for a prolonged period of time, the adaptive maintenance AI model will recommend service sooner, reducing the likelihood of unplanned downtime.

In both scenarios, uptime is improved, resulting in better economic outcomes for customers. Dealers proactively schedule service visits using connectivity within the Blue Service Contract, allowing customers to focus on business growth while knowing maintenance is being managed efficiently to keep trucks in peak operating condition.

These new features are enabled by Volvo Trucks’ integrated connectivity solutions, which monitor the entire truck that is connected to the 24/7 Volvo Trucks Uptime

Center. This allows fleet managers and their dealers to monitor and manage trucks in near real-time. The Blue Service Contract leverages this connectivity and ensures that the service bay, technician, and all necessary Volvo genuine parts are on-hand when the truck arrives at the dealership, expediting service and returning the truck to the road quickly.

This service is available throughout Volvo Trucks’ expansive dealer network, regardless of where the truck was purchased.

“There have been substantial improvements in service intervals in our products over the years. We find that many fleets are

over-maintaining their trucks, which can be costly. Applying AI to optimize maintenance intervals based on truck specs, operating conditions and actual use ensures our customers can maximize the uptime of their Volvo trucks,” said Magnus Gustafson, vice president connected services, Volvo Trucks North America.

“The Blue Service Contract leverages the integrated connectivity of our trucks and incorporates our uptime services to provide customers with a simplified and more effective maintenance solution. This connectivity is a defining feature of Volvo trucks, including on the all-new VNL, the most connected truck ever built.”

In addition to adaptive maintenance, the Blue Service Contract now offers increased flexibility, allowing customers to choose specific services covered under their contract. New contract service options include fuel filters, valve adjustments, pickup and delivery, truck washes, DOT inspections, additional chassis lubes, and other add-on services, providing a white glove experience for drivers and fleets. These services can be customized for individual trucks, enabling operators to create a tailored fleet management strategy that makes their job simpler and hassle-free.

The Blue Service Contract can be paid via ACH, FleetPreferred or as part of truck financing through Volvo Financial Services in fixed monthly payments with no interest expense. The Blue Service Contract is available on all Volvo trucks that are 2023 model year and newer. During launch activities for the all-new Volvo VNL, customers reported a day of downtime represented a revenue loss of between $800 and $5,000 underscoring the importance of optimized maintenance.

Volvo Trucks continues to onboard dealer locations with training and sales support, to ensure they can offer the Blue Service Contract and bring all these benefits to customers. Dealer management groups such as Bruckner’s Truck & Equipment (13 locations), Vanguard Truck Centers (10 locations), Nextran Truck Centers (8 locations), Bergey’s Truck Center (6 locations), Nacarato Truck Centers (6 locations), McMahon Truck Centers (3 locations), TriState Truck Center (3 locations), Northwest Equipment Sales and others, are among the growing list of certified Blue Service Contract dealers.

Increased Usage of Domestic Products Presents Challenges ROLLBACK from page 1

The Biden administration sought to discontinue the Reagan-era waiver by directing agencies to review and reconsider waivers of general applicability.

In 1983, FHWA determined it would be in the public interest to waive Buy America requirements for manufactured products.

Under the Manufactured Products General Waiver manufactured products incorporated into federal-aid projects did not need to be produced domestically.

That stood apart from predominantly iron or steel components of manufactured products.

During the Biden administration, FHWA determined the thought behind the waiver was no longer applicable. As a result, the agency proposed revising regulations to “harmonize” the Buy America program with its Build America Buy America (BABA) requirements.

Eleventh-Hour Finalization In the Reagan years, FHWA concluded that manufactured products were used in insufficient quantity on highway construction projects. It was felt that the practice failed to incentivize domestic manufacturing, resulting in little benefit to applying the protections afforded under Buy America.

With BABA provisions a part of the bipartisan IIJA infrastructure law, FHWA sought to align the highway program with government-wide standards.

The agency said by placing greater value on domestic manufacturing for highway construction, the new rule will encourage investment in this sector. It also will protect and expand domestic manufacturing and increase reliance on U.S.made products. Finally, it will ensure Adobe stock photo federal highway projects benefit from Pete Buttigieg, outgoing transportation secrethe broader domestic manufacturing base tary, said the agency wants to see products that create good-paying jobs and promote pricreated by BABA for all fed programs.

The rule will be rolled out in two project tunity,” he said.

ponents of the manufactured product.

From there rules for manufactured products will match those prescribed by BABA with one important exception, said law firm Crowell & Moring.

Concrete products and cabinets or other enclosures of transportation systems that incorporate steel or iron will still be separately subjected to Buy America requirements for iron and steel.

That means all manufacturing processes for the iron and steel occur in the United States.

However, iron and steel components of other manufactured products are not subject to this requirement.

Bottom line, the new rule does not change the Buy America requirements that currently apply to iron or steel products. It differentiates between products that must comply with Buy America for iron and steel and those that must comply with rules for manufactured products.

Updating its members on the final rule, ARTBA said FHWA will begin applying Buy America requirements later this year.

“Since 1983, the agency has used its waiver authority to exempt this wide array of items used on federal-aid highway projects,” said the association.

That item list includes electronics, ITS hardware, electrical equipment, signal boxes, pumps and many more.

“This action represents … likely one of the final initiatives of the outgoing Biden administration to strengthen domestic manufacturing capabilities,” said ARTBA. As the association noted, IIJA maintained domestic requirements for iron and steel incorporated into federal-aid highway and

bridge products.

But the law also added certain categories of construction materials to Buy America coverage.

The bipartisan IIJA requires federal agencies to periodically review these types of waivers. That combined with Biden’s broad tightening of domestic preference mandates moved FHWA to reconsider the waiver over two years ago.

ARTBA argued that rescinding the waiver would risk increased project costs and delays.

“Ultimately, the administration chose to prioritize its manufacturing agenda,” ARTBA said.

FHWA estimates that compliance with the new policy will cost up to $8.5 billion over the next 10 years.

Lamenting the rising cost of construction materials since the coronavirus pandemic, last year the AGC noted that prices rose faster than contractors’ bids.

“Inflexible rules” for sourcing materials could drive up prices for federally aided projects such as highways, Ken Simonson, AGC chief economist, warned.

ARTBA and the AGC tracked the impacts of the rollback through an industry survey last year.

Some 69 percent of respondents said their bids would reflect the cost uncertainties of Buy America-compliant materials.

“This reality usually results in higher project costs and diluted benefits from federal investment,” Simonson said at the time.

“In addition, if FHWA rolls back its waiver, respondents expect significant challenges in complying with Buy America requirements,” he added.

Less than 15 percent of those surveyed thought these products would easy or possible to acquire. They listed numerous additional products that would be difficult or impossible to source without waivers.

“Federal officials are attempting to shut down a diversified global supply chain … before enough domestic supply exists,” said Jeffrey D. Shoaf, CEO of the AGC. “That’s a recipe for higher costs and delayed projects that will harm both the U.S. economy and highway safety.”

Under the 2025 revised rule, manufactured products will need to be assembled in the United States. And, more than 55 percent of components of those products must be made in the United States.

In analyzing the effects of the waiver rollback, Wiley Law said the extent of the impact is unclear.

FHWA recognizes if not implemented carefully, the new rule may mean “cost increases, project delays and product unavailability.” see ROLLBACK page 62

Raeford Road Project Requires Redesigning T-Intersection RAEFORD from page 1

Transportation (NCDOT) found that approximately 78 percent of Raeford Road’s crashes occurred between the roadway’s intersections. The final report noted that that statistic “highlights the safety concern of the two-way center lane and the numerous driveway openings along the route.”

The agency also learned that the crash rate on Raeford Road is almost twice as high as what would be expected on a similar multilane roadway — 727 crashes per 100 million vehicles traveled, compared to the average statewide rate of 395 accidents for a similar route. Many of the highway’s accidents occur because motorists must cross several lanes of traffic to turn left.

As a result of the study’s findings, a recommendation was made to convert the roadway’s continuous two-way center lane into a concrete or landscaped median along most of the corridor to reduce vehicle collisions and improve traffic flow, noted Andrew Barksdale, a public relations director for NCDOT’s Division 6, which includes the Fayetteville area.

And, to cut down on the traffic accidents along the congested corridor, NCDOT decided to reconstruct the road using a reduced conflict intersection design that will replace the open center turn lanes with a raised median.

By the time work actually began in April 2022, those ideas had coalesced into a three-phase, $147.8 million construction project along 6.3 mi. of Raeford Road.

Highland Paving Co. in Fayetteville was selected as the prime contractor.

The initial portion of the work, or Section A, stretches 1.125 mi. along the corridor from Old Raeford Road on the western end of the project to east of Bunce Road, and cost $35.7 million.

A contract will likely be awarded for work on Raeford Road’s Section B, from Bunce Road east to Glensford Drive,

An impressive quantity of materials was needed, including 60,217 tons of asphalt; 13,604 linear ft. of waterline; 21,000 linear ft. of storm drainpipe; and 4,152 cu. yds. of concrete.

early in 2025, although the reconstruction design for the intersection of Raeford and Skibo Road in that phase is still under consideration, according to Barksdale.

He added that Section C’s construction, from Glensford to Robeson Street, is currently slated to begin in mid-2026. It will include the addition of a southbound exit ramp from Fayetteville’s north-south All-American Freeway for motorists wanting to exit west onto Raeford.

The freeway’s existing southbound off-ramp will continue to be used to head east along Raeford Road, but NCDOT believes the additional ramp will ease congestion on the street near the freeway’s overpass.

A total of five at-grade intersections without traffic lights along the first phase of Raeford Road are being converted into reduced conflict intersections.

“There is really not too much difference between the three phases, except that Segment A has some median already, whereas segments B and C all have open-center turn lanes,” he said. “I would expect each segment to take two or three years to complete, although a final date will be announced at a later time.”

Prior to construction starting on Section A, Barksdale said that some of this segment of Raeford Road had a small, narrow grassy median and open ditches on either side. The new rebuilding effort was designed to fill in the median with raised concrete and landscaping and add concrete curb and gutters and drainage structures.

“While the main thrust of this project is to improve safety, we also want to use this opportunity to modernize this highly traveled and important corridor by updating the drainage, relocating water and sewer lines out of the roadway itself, repaving all of it, and, in some cases, adding turn lanes or through lanes,” he explained. “[NCDOT also wants] to add pedestrian signals and marked crosswalks at several locations, so pedestrians are safer using it.

“This will be a complete street, and thoroughly upgraded, when we are done.”

Crews Have Been Busy A total of five at-grade intersections without traffic lights along the first phase of Raeford Road are being converted into reduced conflict intersections, Barksdale noted.

With these modern intersection designs, traffic on the main route will be able to turn right onto a side road.

Motorists coming from a side street that want to ultimately turn left will be redirected to first turn right before making either a U-turn at the next signalized intersection, or in a dedicated U-turn lane with an area of extra pavement, known as a bulb-out.

Among the other upgrades that NCDOT and its contractors have made or will build across the entire project’s footprint include: • Adding a third travel lane westbound between Graham Road and Old Raeford Road, as well as a third lane eastbound between Graham Road and Bunce Road.

• Constructing sidewalks on both sides of Raeford Road.

• Redesigning the highway’s T-intersection with Skibo Road, where traffic often backs up.

• Installing pedestrian signals and crosswalks at eight intersections.

The first phase of the project fell eight months behind schedule due to a problem caused by a water and sewer line subcontractor, Barksdale explained, but Highland Paving was able to bring in KBS Construction from Fremont, N.C., as a replacement, and its crews have labored hard to bring the work back to full operation.

“Some of the work simply could not proceed until the water and sewer lines were relocated,” he added.

As a result, the revised completion timeline for Section A, which was scheduled to be finished last fall, is now set for June 2025. Barksdale noted that, as of late September 2024, 71 percent of the project had been completed.

“Many of the improvements to the westbound section of Raeford Road are complete, minus the final layer of pavement and the permanent lane markings, which will be placed in the spring,” he said.

Toward the expected end of Section A work in 2025, road asphalt will be applied to Raeford and final pavement markings will be made. see RAEFORD page 58

Utility Conflicts, Heavy Storms Present Challenges to Raeford Road Crews RAEFORD from page 40

People, Materials, Machines Gabe Shoffner, the state transportation agency’s resident engineer on Raeford Road’s Section A construction, noted that besides KBS Construction, the project’s other main subcontractors are Newcon Inc., a Rocky Mount firm in charge of the concrete work; and Fayetteville’s Fulcher Electric, which is handling the street signal installations. They are among a total of 21 subs operating along the corridor.

On a weekday in September, Shoffner counted 37 Highland Paving crew members working onsite along Raeford Road, along with six NCDOT inspectors.

He also listed an impressive quantity of materials that were needed to upgrade this relatively short section of the highway, including 60,217 tons of asphalt; 13,604 linear ft. of waterline; 21,000 linear ft. of storm drainpipe; and 4,152 cu. yds. of concrete.

Shoffner also took careful note of the array of machinery and brands on hand during a particularly busy day. There were, of course, several Cat machines, including a 325, a 330 and a 335 excavator; a M314F wheeled excavator; a 420E backhoe; a 120M2 motor grader; two 924K wheel loaders; a 926M wheel loader; a AP1055F paver; a 5-ton steel wheel roller; and a 13-ton steel wheel roller.

Among the other equipment at the job site was a Power Curbers 5700-C curb and gutter machine; a Kenilworth tack distributor; two Rosco Challenger six-broom tractors; and one each of the following: a Wacker roller; a Ramex roller; a Hamm roller; two Godwin dewatering pumps (a 4-in. and a 6-in. model); and an American Piledriving Equipment (APE) hydraulic pump with a hammer.

Twelve dump trucks also were on the scene, as well as four Ford F-150 pickups; two Ford F-250 utility trucks; an F-250 with a trailer; an F-350 utility truck; an F-350 flatbed truck; four GMC pickups; and a Chevy 2500 heavy-duty pickup.

True Pros Always Find Solutions to Any Challenge When asked about any complications that NCDOT and the contractors have had to face so far in the two years they have been rebuilding Raeford Road, Shoffner explained that the primary headache was undoubtedly overcoming the delays caused by the former water and sewer subcontractor abandoning the enterprise.

Beyond that, though, he said, “Utility conflicts have been a major issue with this project, especially if you run into a conflict at night. That was one of the reasons why we have allowed more daytime lane closures than planned. Traffic congestion also was a challenge, especially when working around the busy signalized intersections.”

Shoffner also noted that heavy storms occurred after temporary drainage measures were installed, causing a few issues, including a Raeford Road failure near its intersection with Graham Road that was quickly repaired.

In addition, Barksdale said that the construction has been a source of “complaints and questions” since it began due to the added traffic congestion and project delays, particularly around Fayetteville’s 71st High School, north of Raeford Road at the junction with 71st School Road. “[NCDOT is] allowing the contractor to have short-term lane closures in the daytime in small segments here and there for this current section under construction,” he said. “We realize this causes some inconvenience and delays, but these lane closures not only protect the workers but allow them to get this project completed as soon as possible.

“When everything is finished, it will be a much better, safer road, and with less congestion, so the temporary inconvenience of the lane closures will be worth it in the long run,” Barksdale assured.  CEG

Paragon’s Relationship With Linder Is Key to Its Success PARAGON from page 14

The importance of reliable equipment cannot be overstated in Paragon’s operations.

“When a critical piece of equipment goes down, it can halt progress on the entire project,” McCarthy said. “That’s why we prioritize having dependable machines with readily available parts. It’s not just about technology; it’s about ensuring continuity and minimizing downtime.”

Keeping up with maintenance and technological advancements allows Paragon to stay ahead in the industry, deliver exceptional results to its clients, and maintain its reputation for excellence.

Critical Component Another key part of Paragon’s success lies in its relationship with Linder Industrial Machinery Company, which has been instrumental in finding the right equipment for Paragon.

“Linder has been a critical component since the inception of our company,” said McCarthy. “We’ve benefited from our partnership with Linder. Even when there’s a shortage of available machines, Linder always puts them on our job site for us.

They’ve kept us in good shape. BOMAG has come a long way in developing new machines, and the product service that Linder provides is a huge help. Their support in maintaining our equipment has been excellent. They are one of the few companies we know that does such a thorough job.”

This level of reliable support ensures that Paragon’s equipment is always in top condition, maximizing productivity.

“Linder’s support is essential because we can’t make money if the equipment’s not working,” McCarthy explained. “The quality of the machinery and the care after the purchase are critical components in making any decision on equipment purchases.”

The personal touch from Linder’s sales team has also made a significant impact.

“Our Linder sales representative, Bill Cross, has always been very good to us,” McCarthy said. “He’s always there to quote anything we need and verify lead times on equipment. The

entire Linder team, not just Bill, has been a pleasure to work with.”

Logistics Manager Wallace West, who oversees the maintenance and operation of Paragon’s machines, echoed McCarthy’s sentiments.

“Bill keeps up with everything and is very knowledgeable about the equipment,” said West. “If there’s any issue, I just call Bill, and he takes care of it. That’s why we prefer doing business with Linder. It’s one call, and I know it will get handled.”

An operator compacts material with a BOMAG BW 219 DH-5 single drum roller.

Scaling Up Looking ahead, Paragon is poised to maintain its leading position in the industry while focusing on strategic growth that aligns with its clients’ needs.

“We’re fortunate to have reached the size we are,” said McCarthy. “We can handle some of the largest jobs in Charlotte and manage multiple projects of that scale simultaneously.

While we have no interest in expanding just for the sake of growth, we are committed to scaling up with our customers as they take on more large-scale projects. Our priority is to continue providing exceptional service with the team we trust and the resources we have.” *The opinions expressed here are from the end user as quoted.

Among other highlights, he said he wants to work with other committee members to strengthen safety measures for highway construction workers.

Duffy promised to respond to questions, including his stand on Buy America, and to cut red tape at the agency, according to ARTBA. Asked by Sen. Tammy Baldwin of Wisconsin whether he supported the waiver rollback, Duffy said he’s in favor of domestic materials production.

ARTBA reported he expressed support for getting American-made products into transportation projects. But Duffy “refrained from commenting on the directive until he reviews it,” said the association.

“As a result, FHWA indicated that it intends to consider whether to issue ‘targeted waivers’ for specific products,” said the firm.

FHWA issued an accompanying RFI requesting information on whether certain manufactured products are not and cannot be produced in the United States. That allows the agency to determine whether targeted waivers for those products are warranted.

FHWA said it will work with manufacturers and state transportation agencies to identify products that may require short-term waivers going forward.

Hitachi’s Versatility, Efficiency Keep Project On Schedule HITACHI from page 8

“Our superintendent has had some experience with Hitachi overseas, so he was on board with it, and Scott McDougle and his team at Hills provided maintenance service and warranty agreements, which are especially important in marine work,” she said.

“The conditions here are very tough on construction equipment with the ever-present salt water. If you don’t have the right setup or the proper maintenance, these machines will break down.”

The assistance provided by McDougle and Hills Machinery to the contractors extended beyond finding the right machines for the project, Pym said, as the dealership also helped spec what booms, buckets and grapples were required to help prevent the excavators from knocking into passing vehicles or the site’s permanent structures.

“Just because of the uniqueness of the arm and the size of the material we are working with, when you get into construction like this there are not a lot of standard parts and pieces that you can use, so the right specialty attachments are extremely important. That’s why working with Hills Machinery is great because in looking at what we were building and how we were doing it, they helped make sure we had the attachments that fit our

needs.”

Hills Machinery also assembled the large Hitachi 1200, which has an operating weight of approximately 264,600 lbs. when equipped with a bucket.

“They did a great portion of assembling this machine at our pre-cast yard,” Pym said.

“I was a little scared about seeing it in person, but when I finally did, I found it to be amazing. Seeing the Hitachi 890 is impressive too, but when I saw the 1200, that was a ‘wow’ moment for me because I am tall, but there is a chunk of the boom on that machine that is taller than me.”

Hitachi Excavator Models Perfect for Job The construction team’s 760-hp. Hitachi 1200 excavator does its job from a barge and transloads its rock by swinging it toward the Hitachi 890, which will then be used to place the final shape, she said.

“We are moving rocks that make up three different sizes,” Pym added. “For example, the largest rock has a medium weight of 6.5 tons, and the range goes all the way down to our small rock, which is our 3-inch to 9-inch stone, so the excavators not only had to carry the large capacity rock but the smaller ones as well.”

To do so, the Hitachi excavators each use separate attachments, she added, just as each rock size is handled by specific attachments.

To increase the size of the existing South Island, its rock layers are built on either side of a coffer dam. The Hitachi excavators are working close to a series of permanent and temporary bridge bents, Pym said, “so we have to place rock all around because the piles will be in place as well as some of the cap beams.”

With the seabed reaching a varied but maximum depth of about 30 ft. where the contractors are working to build the island, the Hitachi 1200 was outfitted with a special long-reach boom so it could not only reach across its barge, but also swing over a coffer dam and set the rock in order for the Hitachi 890, sitting on the rock platform it built, to place the rock in its final position.

“And to add another unique challenge, most of it is done underwater, so folks don’t even get to see the beautiful and complex work the Hitachi machines are doing,” Pym said. “But survey equipment aboard the Hitachi helps us see the rock placement in a 3D view.”

By using the efficient Hitachi excavators, she anticipates the South Island expansion part of the overall project to be finished in

2025.

HRBT One of Two Tunnel Expansions in Tidewater The Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel is the fourth bored roadway tunnel project in the United States, along with similar ones in Seattle and Miami. In addition, just a few miles east of the HRBT, an expansion is currently underway on the Parallel Thimble Shoal Tunnel between two human-made islands, part of the enlargement of the Chesapeake Bay Bridge-Tunnel that connects Virginia Beach to the Eastern Shore of Virginia.

Each of the Tidewater tunnel projects are needed to keep up with the ever-growing traffic concerns in southeast Virginia. The busy region encompasses seven cities with populations exceeding 90,000 residents, including Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Chesapeake, Newport News, Hampton, Portsmouth and Suffolk.

Besides being a top tourist destination, with beaches and historic sites nearby — like Williamsburg, Jamestown, and Yorktown — the area is also home to the largest U.S. Navy base in the world, and one of the Atlantic Coast’s top commercial shipping ports.  CEG

C.A. Barrs had multiple machines on site including an R 926 crawler excavator and an R 946 crawler excavator to dig the retention pond, as well as a PR 716 crawler dozer with trimble grading to clear the 8 acres for additional storage of machines.

LIEBHERR from page 28

Valuable Assets To create additional storage and a rainwater retention pond, essential earthmoving, utilities and stonework was carried out across 8 acres of land. The bulk of the dirt work was carried out by Hampton Roads construction contractor, C.A. Barrs.

The company had multiple machines on site including an R 926 crawler excavator and an R 946 crawler excavator to dig the retention pond, as well as a PR 716 crawler dozer with trimble grading to clear the 8 acres for additional storage of machines.

“We are doing all the dirt and utility work, so we have a Trimble GPS Liebherr 946 digging the pond and loading dump trucks and a Liebherr 716 dozer with Trimble grading the pond and stone on site,” said Cole Barrs, foreman of C.A. Barrs. “The equipment is fast and accurate with Trimble GPS making our job easier.”

The Liebherr earthmoving range offers an extensive variety of high-quality machines made with in-house components developed and manufactured by Liebherr. Among these are the entire drive and control technology, diesel engines and a variety of components for hydraulics, gearboxes and electronic systems.

“We feel that our machines are a great value and have served our company very well,” said Steve Barrs, president

of C.A. Barrs.

C.A. Barrs also noted a main piece of criteria in purchasing its excavators was not only the good value of the machine, but the support and follow up of Liebherr USA Co.’s sales team. Understanding the importance of reliable, real-time customer service, Liebherr USA offers an extensive Earthmoving and Material Handling Technology sales and service network that covers the entire country. This provides rapid support from Liebherr experts to keep customers’ machines running efficiently and effectively with little downtime.

Forward Thinking This expansion is more than just a construction project; it is a cornerstone of Liebherr Mining Equipment’s strategic vision, laying a stronger foundation for the many ambitious projects anticipated in the future.

“We’re thankful for the partnerships with the cities of Hampton and Newport News and the Commonwealth of Virginia that have greatly enriched our operations and enabled Liebherr Mininge Equipment to bring 175 new jobs and investment to the region,” said Cort Reiser, managing director of Liebherr Mining Equipment Newport News Co.  (All photos courtesy of Liebherr.)

Beton Cap Series PULSAR Pump Design Reduces Surge from page 27

Mecbo is widely known for its PULSAR pump system — a rack and pinion valve control that reduces the maintenance burden and consistently facilitates smooth pouring.

A long stroke allows the pump to push a greater volume of concrete with less movement, which minimizes surging. In addition, PULSAR has been shown to reduce energy consumption by 30-40 percent compared to other concrete pumps.

Operators of both diesel and electric models can enjoy the convenience of dedicated work and maintenance stations, as well as a user-friendly radio control. The handheld radio remote control bucks the current industry trend by featuring toggles instead of a touch screen. This design eliminates the risk of digital malfunction prevalent when working with wet concrete.

The Beton Cap offers multiple power options in the form of 115-, 160- or 210-hp (85-, 120- or 157-kilowatt) diesel engine models. Customers looking to use the pump in settings where diesel exhaust would be prohibitive to the project have the option of

Mecbo America photo

a 200-hp (150-kilowatt) electric motor.

Models range in weight from 9 to 19 tons.

The mixer-pump is seamlessly integrated onto an axle with a durable tracked undercarriage. Adaptable to various terrains, the pump can be installed on wheels or trucks.

Factory options include soundproofing for work in densely populated urban areas, a hopper screen vibrator for harsh mixes and an automatic lubrication system.
