Skanska Builds $450M Alligator River Bridge After years of planning and research, work is under way to replace the Lindsay C. Warren Bridge on U.S. 64 over the Alligator River. The North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) is overseeing the $450 million project, which will improve conditions for motorists and the more than 4,000 boats that pass through the swing span each year. “The current bridge is 65 years old and is prone to mechanical issues that can mean a 99-mile detour for motorists if the bridge is not functioning,” said Pablo Hernandez, NCDOT resident engineer. “It requires constant monitoring for concrete repair, along with maintenance and upkeep of the mechanical components of the swing span.” Because the bridge has spent more than six decades in a corrosive environment, it’s considered structurally deficient. Opting for a new fixedspan bridge, just north of the current one, will allow unimpeded transit for both vehicular and maritime traffic. The bridge also is the main route to access the Outer Banks from the west and is considered a critical hurricane evacuation route. The Alligator River By Cindy Riley

SCDOT’s Largest Contract Ever Widens I-95, Adds DDI, Exit Along Interstate 95 at the southeastern tip of South Carolina, the town of Hardeeville’s Exit 5 and Hilton Head Island’s Exit 8 are being reconfigured as part of the most expensive contract in the history of the South Carolina Department of Transportation (SCDOT). The agency is undertaking the herculean task of widening I-95, the major east coast roadway shuffling drivers between Maine and Miami. The interstate will expand from two to three lanes in a $825 million project expected to be completed by 2030. The work will extend across a 10-mi. corridor of I-95 from the Savannah River/Georgia state line northward to approximately a mile beyond the U.S. Highway 278 interchange, which leads to Hilton Head Island. Fourteen bridges will be replaced, and the Exit 8 interchange will be reconfigured into a new, increasingly popular type of roadway designed to keep traffic flowing and reduce collisions. In addition, a new Exit 3 interchange is being completed as a separate project by the town of Hardeeville. These upgrades are designed to reduce bottlenecks through the Hardeeville zone, currently one of the worst rural interstates for freight mobility, according to a 2021 SCDOT I-95 feasibility report. In the short term, however, more traffic headaches are possible. Craig Winn, the SCDOT program manager for the state’s Lowcountry, told The State newspaper in Columbia that the current two lanes of traffic will be kept open — at least during peak hours. “We do lane closures a little bit differently than other states,” he said. “We do have restrictions on our primary routes, our interstate systems, where there’s only certain periods of time [when] the contractors can actually close lanes down.” South CarolinaÊs Lowcountry Gets Its First DDI Hilton Head Island’s Exit 8 off I-95 is being reconfigured into what is called a “diverging diamond interchange,” or DDI, which looks a bit like shoelaces tied into several knots, The State noted Dec. 15. The relatively new interchange design is used in many areas of the county but is new to that region of the Palmetto State. Although they might look complex from a birds-eye view, SCDOT said diverging diamonds can be a “game changer” for high-traffic areas. The new-style intersection improves traffic flow by eliminating the need for drivers to make left turns across oncoming traffic. Instead, it temporarily shifts drivers in both directions to the opposite sides of the road. Clear signage, pavement markings and traffic signals help guide drivers through the roadway. “Over the past few years, multiple interchanges throughout the state have been converted to DDIs and helped to reduce conflict points with crossing traffic,” SCDOT said in a Facebook post. Once the freeway project is finished, drivers leaving Hilton Head on U.S. 278 going toward I-95 southbound will approach a traffic light. When the light is green, motorists will cross the intersection and maneuver into what would conventionally be the eastbound lanes. They can then make a left turn directly onto the I-95 southbound on-ramp. Similarly, eastbound U.S. 278 traffic, on a green light, will cross over to the westbound lanes and merge onto

northbound I-95, eliminating the need for separate left-turn signals. Drivers who want to remain traveling east or west on U.S. 278 will encounter another traffic signal. If the light is green, they will be funneled back to what is considered the “normal” side of the highway. The I-95 Exit 8 project also involves eliminating the intersection at Medical Center Drive, which provides access to hotels and restaurants, as well as Novant Health’s Coastal Carolina Medical Center. SCDOT’s plans show the intersection will be moved approximately one-fifth of a mile to Dolnik Drive. A traffic circle will be built where the new road connects to Brickyard Road, allowing drivers to head west, looping back to the shops, hotels, hospital and apartments currently under construction. SCDOT Improves One Hardeeville Interchange, Creates Another At Purysburgh Road, near the border with Georgia, plans also call for Hardeeville to get a new I-95 Exit 3 interchange with I-95. In an interview back in September with The State, SCDOT’s Winn said he did not have a date for the start of that construction but was expecting to seek bids at the end of 2025.
The transportation agency’s plans show that Exit 3 also will likely be a diverging diamond interchange. To reduce vehicles stacking on the interstate, SCDOT will build the DDI to keep drivers safer by eliminating left turns in front of on-coming traffic. In addition, Hardeeville’s I-95/U.S. 17 Exit 5 will see modifications to support the traffic that has increased due to the city’s growth as a major shipping and logistics hub. SCDOT plans to change the off-ramps from the interstate so that they end at a traffic signal, rather than forcing drivers to yield to traffic from U.S. 17. A new frontage road connecting to U.S. 17 also will be built farther away from the interchange, The State learned. The road will direct traffic behind gas stations, restaurants and fireworks stores. Hardeeville’s growth is driven by the area’s proximity to the Savannah Ports, I-95 and various rail lines. Millions of square feet of logistics and manufacturing space are quickly appearing along the U.S. 17 corridor; the South Atlantic Logistics Terminal alone, which broke ground late last year, will span more than 800 acres and is planned to include as much as 6 million sq. ft. of warehouse and industrial space upon completion. More large fulfillment centers means more truck traffic, and the new traffic signals at the Hardeeville and Hilton Head Island I-95 exits are designed to offer some relief.

J&D Specialized Helps Keep Power Equipment Moving Along By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR
When 23-year-old Joe Denney went into business for himself hauling equipment for contractors, quarries and distributors in Middle Tennessee, he did so with years of experience despite being only 23 years old. He had gained much of that know-how by moving sand, gravel and asphalt for his father’s company, Denney Trucking in Lebanon, Tenn., during and after his high school days. Denney’s career trajectory changed, though, when he recognized a need in the industry — one which led him to purchase an old truck and lowboy set up for $20,000. “One of the guys that owned a track loader said, ‘Man, I always seem to have a hard time finding anybody to move this stuff to where I need it and when I do, its three or four days before they can get here. You ought to go [into the hauling business],’” Denney said. “I told him I couldn’t do it because I was responsible for dispatching more than 45 dump trucks at that time.” Still, he took the advice and, as a result, the track loader owner continued to call on him for his service. That eventually led to Denney starting his own one-man company in 2000, J&D Specialized Equipment Hauling, even as he kept working for his dad. Today, Joe Denney’s business in Lebanon, east of Nashville, is regarded as the region’s premier equipment and components hauling firm. Along with his wife, Joey, the company employs approximately 80 employees using 50 trucks and more than 200 trailers, with approximately 65 of those being lowboys. Her duties within the company, Joey said, are handling “all the back of the house, including human resources, insurance, risk mitigation, operations and administrative processes. Joe has more technical knowledge and I'm more process oriented. “ “We have anywhere between 550 to 650 active customers each year,” she said. “Most of our work is in [the Middle Tennessee] region.” Besides the trucking and hauling operation, J&D’s main business, the company also offers equipment storage for its clients, a logistics division, a rigging department and a full-scale shop to minimize equipment downtime. In its formative years, though, J&D’s success depended entirely on Joe’s seemingly unceasing amount of drive and energy, balanced by Joey’s organizational skills and financial acumen. To drum up more work for his company, in 2002, Denney summoned the courage to approach the Nashville branch of Power
(L-R) are Cole Denney, Zane Denney, Joe Denney and Joey Denney.
Equipment — one of the largest construction machine distributors in the Southeast — to see about hauling its equipment wherever the Knoxville-based company needed. “I think I drove around the parking lot three times before I stopped because I was a little nervous,” he said. “Once I got in, I sat down and the guy working at the front counter was Dennis Dorris, the rental coordinator at Power.” As it turned out, meeting Dorris proved advantageous for both Denney and Power Equipment. “Dennis gave me an opportunity,” he said. “After I moved that first machine for him, I called back and asked, ‘OK, what’s next?’ But, he said, ‘I'll call you when I need you.’ Regardless, that was my entry to the industry and helped me get more business.”
Power later provided Denney with a chance to take on a larger role when Dorris called to say another hauling company that worked for the distributor was no longer able to handle the workload. “I quickly agreed because up until that point I had been getting all the hauling jobs that were left over,” Denney said. “The first thing I did was call my dad and tell him I was going to quit his company because to succeed at mine, I had to do this work full time.” From that day to the present, he said, “Power’s Nashville branch has never had to use anybody else because I’m always going to take care of it for them. That has been the case for more than 20 years. In fact, we’re not going to let down any of our clients, even if I have to do it myself.”
Known for Quick Response Time Denney’s promise has made J&D Specialized Equipment Hauling a respected name in the industry due to its rapid response and professionalism when called upon by Power Equipment and other constructionrelated companies. Others among its client base are contractors, utility companies and mining operations. Given Power’s huge market, which spreads across the entirety of Tennessee as well as portions of southwestern Virginia, Georgia, Mississippi and most of Arkansas from its eight dealership locations, it has helped J&D finely-tune its logistics division to operate the company’s hauling operation like a Swiss-made watch. “We have trucks running around in all those places for Power and many of our other clients,” he said. “Let’s say Matthew Spence, one of Power’s Nashville territory managers, gets a rent request from a contractor. He may call it into our office and say, ‘We need this dozer moved out of Tupelo, Miss., in the morning and brought to Nashville.’ Well, chances are we may have somebody in Memphis that’s coming back from Little Rock, Ark., or a guy in Birmingham that we can send over there.” As J&D now transports an average of 14,000 loads per year, the trick is figuring out how to get each piece of equipment to the right location as quickly as possible. “With a lowboy business, you really need to have a plethora of customers, and it takes an arsenal of trucks and haul equipment to cover everything because our clients want it all moved today, not in a week’s time,” Denney said. “It’s a logistical game that plays out every day.” see J&D page 70
The contractor’s association with Power Equipment also has helped to spread the word about J&D’s hauling efficiencies to other potential clients.

CHCNAV, Benchmark Offer Advanced Machine Control As more contractors adopt automated equipment systems to improve grading accuracy, CHC Navigation (CHCNAV) has taken a step to expand its machine control presence across the United States. The company recently entered a nationwide partnership with Benchmark Tool & Supply, a North Carolina–based distributor that will now provide sales, installation, training and technical support for CHCNAV’s excavator, grader and dozer solutions. The agreement, finalized in October 2025, gives CHCNAV broader reach in the U.S. construction market while adding a new set of machine control offerings to Benchmark Tool & Supply’s established portfolio of field technology. The partnership will make CHCNAV systems more accessible to contractors who are modernizing earthmoving operations or looking for alternatives to traditional grade-checking methods. Founded in 2003, CHCNAV develops high-precision navigation, positioning and mapping technologies used across construction, geospatial, agriculture, marine and autonomous applications. The company supports customers in more than 140 countries through a global network of regional offices and distributors and continues to invest in proprietary software, algorithms and core hardware aimed at improving accuracy and long-term system performance. CHCNAV’s machine control lineup includes systems for excavators, dozers and graders. For smaller contractors or fast-moving utility crews, one of the most notable options is the EasyNav EMG100, a compact excavator guidance system that installs and
calibrates in under two hours and allows operators to design and adjust work directly on the machine without a surveyor. The system supports all major GNSS constellations and enables operators to design and adjust work directly on the machine. Designed for broad machine compatibility, the EMG100 supports a wide range of excavator configurations, including swing booms, triple booms, tilt buckets and multiple bucket types, allowing contractors to standardize across fleets. For more demanding production work, CHCNAV offers the MCNav TX73 for excavators. The system supports automated digging functions, over-the-air software updates and more advanced production workflows, while allowing operators to cus-
tomize screen layouts and shortcuts to match jobsite preferences. Live 3D design updates enable crews to adjust designs and see changes immediately, and a high-speed data chain is designed to keep machine guidance responsive. Designs can be sent directly to the machine with minimal setup, reducing downtime between revisions. One of the key benefits of the TX73 is improved safety: by providing operators with more accurate visual guidance, the system reduces the need for crew members to stand in active trench areas. The grader-focused TG63 and the dozerfocused TD63 Pro round out CHCNAV’s earthmoving portfolio. Both rely on dual GNSS receivers and IMU sensors to deliver automated blade control and precise 3D positioning. The systems are compatible with a wide range of machine models, giving contractors flexibility when upgrading mixed fleets. Installation times are designed to be relatively short — under five hours for most graders — allowing machines to return to production quickly. For Benchmark Tool & Supply, the addition of CHCNAV solutions aligns with its long-standing focus on jobsite technology. The company began operations in 2004 and has since grown into a regional leader in surveying instruments, GPS systems, software,
lasers, drones and construction equipment support. With more than 50 years of combined staff experience, Benchmark has developed a reputation for hands-on service and field integration. “Today marks a milestone for Benchmark Tool & Supply as we expand our technological capability and national reach,” said Chuck Harris, CTO of Benchmark Tool & Supply. He added that the company frequently works with contractors transitioning to digital systems and expects demand for machine control to continue increasing. CHCNAV leadership highlighted the role of experienced dealers in supporting machine control adoption. “Benchmark’s understanding of the U.S. engineering, surveying, agriculture, construction and heavy equipment market aligns with our mission to deliver precision positioning solutions,” said George Zhao, CEO of CHCNAV. The partnership will give contractors additional choices in an increasingly competitive machine control landscape. With Benchmark Tool & Supply handling installation and field training, the companies aim to deliver systems that can be deployed quickly and integrated into existing operations.

NCDOT Is Set to Begin $42.8M Russ Manitou Announces Avenue Construction in Waynesville Brad Boehler as Pres. Construction along the busiest and most-traveled section of Russ Avenue in Waynesville, N.C., will soon get under way. The work is slated to begin in January for phase two of the Russ Avenue project, which will extend the street from the Starbucks intersection, past the Ingles and Publix grocery stores, to the old Kmart plaza on the other side of the bypass interchange. Waynesville is located in western North Carolina’s Haywood County, southwest of Asheville. For years, the town’s residents knew the roadwork was coming. And while the Russ Avenue traffic congestion will be better once it is finished, everyone in the town needs to be prepared for some pain over the next 18 months, according to The Mountaineer, Haywood County’s weekly news source. “We are very conscious of the traffic out there and want to keep it as smooth as we can,” said Scott Cook, who serves as the North Carolina Department of Transportation’s (NCDOT) assistant resident engineer for the project. The upcoming construction effort will be similar to the first phase of work along the less-traveled section of Russ Avenue, which The Mountaineer noted on Dec. 10 has been a driver training course of sorts ahead of the more congested phase two section. By now, nearly all motorists are adept at navigating the maze of orange construction barrels that denote the ever-shifting lane configurations, the newspaper said. “It will be a lot of what they’ve already experienced on the section from Main Street to Howell Mill,” Cook said. The biggest problem will be a bottleneck resulting from fewer lanes. Instead of two lanes in each direction, at times there will only be one lane in a given direction. An exact start date for the next round of construction has not been announced, but the Waynesville-based newspaper said phase two is likely to start after the first of the year and conclude by the fall of 2027. NCDOT has awarded a $42.8 million construction contract to Buchanan and Sons Inc. of Whittier, N.C., to extend and expand Russ Avenue. The construction price tag does not include right-of-way property acquisition or engineering and design. Bracing for RoadwayÊs Improvement Although plans call for the new Russ Avenue to be built wider, it will still only have a pair of through-travel lanes in each direction, just as it currently does. However, by removing the street’s middle turn lane, traffic is likely to flow better. Drivers will need to make U-turns at intersections and double back to reach businesses on the other side. There also will be extra right-turn lanes added at some intersections to keep the through-travel lanes free of braking vehicles, which cause chain-reaction slowdowns. The first order of business will be moving utilities out of the wider road footprint, Cook said. Water and sewer lines,
fiber and phone lines and electrical lines will all have to be dug up and moved back as well. “Some utilities will have to bore under Russ Avenue to get to the other side,” he said. The utility work will not be a soft launch when it comes to traffic impacts, according to The Mountaineer. Instead, lanes will be reduced soon after the start of construction to allow for utility work along the road’s shoulders. The lane work also will be carried out on one side of the road before switching to the other. Traffic will be shifted away from the side where work is being performed, which will ultimately result in fewer lanes. At times, there will only be one traffic lane in a given direction. Which side will be done first, or exactly when the lane reductions are coming is not yet known. “We are too early [in the process] to make that conclusion at this point,” Cook said. He added that no businesses will be blocked by the Russ Avenue construction. Wherever crews are working, orange barrels will create an access chute across the work zone into the entranceway of local businesses. Eventually, though, workers will need to cross those driveway thresholds to finish the project. “In those situations, we would do half the driveway at a time,” Cook said. Complications could arise if there is just a single driveway entrance to a business along Russ Avenue as drivers entering and exiting an establishment would have to NCDOT logo share one access lane. If need be, “we could schedule to do that work at night when the business is closed,” said the NCDOT engineer. The Mountaineer noted, though, that things could get a bit dicey with the middle turning lane. It will periodically be claimed as a through-travel lane to help move the sheer volume of vehicles along Russ Avenue. “Our goal is to maintain that access as much as we can, but there will be times when that middle turn lane is not accessible,” Cook said, meaning that drivers wanting to turn left into a business from the other side of the road could hold up the vehicles behind them if they sit and wait for an opening in traffic. However, he also said that it is possible there could be small sections of middle turn lanes here and there along the Russ Avenue corridor — that will certainly be the case at stoplights. Meanwhile, contractors also will be wrapping up phase one work along the lower section of Russ Avenue, which has been under construction for the past 18 months. The Mountaineer reported, though, that a missing link remains in a bridge being built within the first phase of the project. One side of the structure is not yet finished, and until then, traffic lanes are reduced to shift vehicles to one side. Therefore, the possibility exists that phase two could commence before phase one is entirely finished.

Orlando Program Gives Vets Home Reconstruction Skills It can take years to clean up and repair a home in Florida after a natural disaster like a hurricane. What makes it worse is the state’s chronic shortage of construction workers. For a Nov. 12, 2025, news report, Central Florida Public Media recently visited an Orlando-based program that trains military veterans to help with home reconstruction after destructive storms. The initiative was made possible through a partnership between the Home Builders Institute (HBI) in Orlando and Team Rubicon, a nationwide veteran’s nonprofit and humanitarian aid organization. Tim Zander was in the military for nine years. When he left, he was looking for structure and a way to give back. He ended up finding what he was looking for in carpentry. “It’s always been in the back of my mind. My grandpa was a carpenter. I’ve always enjoyed working with my hands,” he said. But it was Zander’s wife who encouraged him to train to become a carpenter and enroll in the free nine-week carpentry and roofing training program offered by the HBI and Team Rubicon. He had already been helping friends and family members make repairs around their homes. “My wife, she’s a veteran too. She talked to me about it and said, ‘You know, you should just go for it,’” Zander said. He and 14 other trainees will graduate from the program Nov. 21. Each one will get a federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) trade certificate as well as help finding an apprenticeship and a job. Zander said he is ready to help his community once he completes the program. And that, according to Alex Gomez, HBI’s associate vice president of academies, is preciously the goal of the program. The program in which Zander enrolled is in its first year and is designed to assist veterans with the transition back to civilian life, while also producing workers who can help repair and rebuild homes after natural disasters. Gomez said veterans learn the basics of carpentry and roofing, and review the math needed to be successful during the first few weeks of the program. An introductory class teaches them about
tool identification and basic math since they must know how to use a tape measure, how to use decimals and multiplication and understand how, as Gomez said, “to measure twice [and] cut once.” From there, the program’s students learn how to build hurricane resilient homes in a shop using smaller models of homes and roofs. “So, throughout the whole nine weeks, they spend 20 percent of that time in the classroom, and about 80 percent in the shop,” said Gomez. The hands-on training teaches them how to build a roof, lay down tiles and fortify houses to withstand hurricane winds of more than 150 mph. Their instructors are industry
“So, throughout the whole nine weeks, they spend 20 percent of that time in the classroom, and about 80 percent in the shop.”

trained, he said, and have been in the field for more than 20 years. When they leave the program, students can walk directly into an apprenticeship and a job in construction — a crucial point as Florida currently suffers from a shortage of these workers. Number of Lost Construction Workers Staggering In 2025 alone, according to the Associated Builders and Contractors of Florida (ABC), the industry has seen a reduction of 400,000 construction workers. Recent data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that central Florida’s Brevard County placed fourth among the state’s counties that lost the most construction workers to early retirement or other reasons. Brevard lost 8.96 percent of its skilled workers between the first quarter of 2024 and the first quarter of 2025. see VETS page 69

Construction, Land Clearing, Forestry All Focus of N.C.’s Southern Farm Show While most people know the Southern Farm Show in Raleigh, N.C., is the largest annual farm equipment show to be found in the Carolinas and Virginia, they do not always know it also is the largest annual construction equipment exposition for the three-state region. According to David Zimmerman, show manager, it has not always been that way. “It has evolved over the years for many reasons,” he said. “One is that many farmers also do grading and excavation work on the side or as their second job. Two is that many full-time construction professionals come to the show because they grew up in farming communities and still have land or small farms. Three is that construction equipment is used in land clearing and forestry, both important components of agriculture in North Carolina. Finally, four is that there’s been a need for a regional show focusing on construction equipment, and the Southern Farm Show has filled that need.” The great majority of the construction-related equipment at the show focuses on grading, excavating and land clearing equipment. Grading and excavation brands on display at the show will include JCB, Bobcat, Yanmar, New Holland, Takeuchi, LiuGong, Kubota, Sunward, AUSA, Hyundai,

TOMRA Unveils Finder Color for Sorting High-Purity Metals TOMRA Recycling has launched Finder Color, a new high-throughput solution designed to meet the evolving needs of the scrap metal recycling and e-scrap processing industries. The next-generation color sorting system is engineered to deliver exceptional purity and recovery levels at high throughput across a broad spectrum of metals sorting tasks, according to TOMRA Finder Color is particularly effective for recovering valuable materials such as copper and brass from mixed heavy metals, cleaning stainless steel fractions (including those from end-of-life vehicles) and achieving high-level purification of printed circuit boards (PCBs) from mixed e-scrap, according to TOMRA. It is capable of processing grain sizes from 0.2 to 4.7 in. and delivering throughput of up to 22.4 tons per hour on Zorba material. Building on TOMRA’s legacy of innovation in metal sorting, the new Finder Color solution is a flexible system that combines proven hardware and software with AI algorithms to adapt to changing material streams and market demands. Its core features an ultra-precise RGB camera and an AIpowered object singulation technology, enabling accurate,
object-level sorting down to a few millimeters, even when objects are overlapping, adjacent or the same color as the belt, according to TOMRA. This single-camera system sorts materials by color, size and shape, providing operators with full control and unmatched accuracy. For enhanced purification, an optional electromagnetic (EM) sensor can be added. This is particularly useful for sorting materials with similar colors. The optional high-sensitivity EM sensor enhances metal recovery from mixed streams in batch mode, supporting PCB classification in escrap, or complementing the RGB sensor to add an extra purification layer against plastic contamination. The system also offers easy configuration for both batch and continuous flow sorting, with fast switching between different fractions. This allows operators to quickly change which material they are sorting, such as switching from copper one day to brass the next. Finder Color’s compact and simple design ensures easy integration into existing sorting lines, while its maintenance platform and accessible valve block are engineered for simple and efficient servicing. The machine can be connected for optimized, data-driven sorting through TOMRA Insight, an optional cloud-based data platform.
“Feedback from our metals customers highlighted the need for a highly flexible sorting machine to cover a wide range of sorting tasks,” said Tom Jansen, head of metal segments of TOMRA Recycling. “After 25 years of offering color sorters, we continue to see strong demand for versatile, highly accurate, reliable and cost-efficient solutions. Finder Color pushes the boundaries of what color sorting machines can achieve with applications like separating stainless steel from a mixed fraction of other grey metals, such as zinc and aluminum, and purifying e-scrap to help customers maximize their output and stay competitive.” “North American market feedback echoes this call for a flexible machine that delivers superior performance for a wide range of sorting tasks,” said Giuseppe Granara, area manager, metals segments, of TOMRA Recycling. “Color sorting with the new Finder Color offers more competitive and cost-effective ways to sort valuable metals and materials than other technologies currently available on the market.” Developed by the same in-house engineering experts behind TOMRA’s comprehensive portfolio of metal sorting machines, Finder Color can be used as a standalone machine, following magnetic separation or to extract value from heavy metals removed by XRT technology such as TOMRA’s X-Tract. It also is the ideal last-step sorting solution for extracting value from PCBs in e-scrap and can be used to sort stainless steel and wire from material recovered using TOMRA’s Finder unit. These integration options optimize the entire sorting process, helping customers refine performance, reduce operational complexity and drive greater business value. Finder Color and other TOMRA Recycling metals recovery solutions are made available in North America through our exclusive metals partner, Wendt Corporation. Recyclers are encouraged to test their materials using Wendt Corporation’s new cutting-edge Test Center for metals. For more information, visit tomra.com/recycling.

Local Infrastructure Projects Have Impact On Region, State DOT from page 1
These contracts “eliminate long detours, reopen safe routes for heavy vehicles and strengthen the transportation network” communities rely on said one state official In a December AASHTO Journal article, another official said these programs deliver “localized infrastructure that keeps the state moving forward.” State departments of transportation see the value in fiscal support for local transportation projects that can impact not only the region but the entire state. State DOTs Put Money Where ItÊs Needed Each state establishes its own funding program. In Nebraska, the DOT’s County Bridge Match Program (CBMP) was started in 2016. Part of the state’s Transportation Innovation Act, the program selected proposals in November for its 10th round of contracts. These selections represent nine counties and 15 bridges, at an estimated total cost of $9.8 million, including $4 million from the CBMP. AASHTO said the program was created to share construction costs and help counties rebuild crossings that are “essential to rural life and commerce.” “Nebraska DOT said the CBMP has become a ‘cornerstone’ in maintaining and improving county bridges statewide,” noted the article. The program does so by providing funds for the innovative replacement and repair of deficient county structures. Nebraska DOT selects applications based on criteria that emphasize community impacts on essential services, local economies and daily life. In Kentucky, $6 million was issued to 12 critical bridge projects across nine counties and one city by the state’s Transportation Cabinet (KYTC). It was the fifth round of the state’s County and City Bridge Improvement Program, which has awarded $38.7 million to local governments this year. “Our focus is simple: Repair what’s failing and restore access where it’s been lost,” said Jim Gray, KYTC secretary. Through its Cost Share Program, the Kansas Department of Transportation awarded $5.9 million to 10 local transportation construction projects. The agency leveraged nearly $3.3 million in community matching funds for more than $9 million in infrastructure improvements. These improvement projects mean enhanced safety, support for local economies and improved connectivity across Kansas, said the agency. “Kansas communities have the clearest perspective on their local transportation priorities,” said Calvin Reed, Kansas DOT secretary.

State DOTs see the value in fiscal support for local transportation projects that can impact not only the region but the entire state.
The Cost Share Program unlocks the ability to fund those desired projects, he added. In Connecticut the state DOT granted nearly $12 million to 17 towns and cities for projects via its Community Connectivity Grant Program. The state-funded program is now in its seventh round of providing financial support for local infrastructure initiatives, according to AASHTO. These projects make conditions safer and more accommodating for pedestrians and bicyclists in urban, suburban and rural centers. “This grant program, which helps fund these important community-driven projects, is an integral part of our mission,” said
Garrett Eucalitto, CTDOT commissioner. “This state funding is helping towns and cities deliver important projects; increasing safety and enhancing connectivity across Connecticut.” And in Michigan, the state DOT issued 11 Transportation Economic Development Fund Category F grants totaling $3.9 million to rebuild local roads. “TEDF grants are a great tool for communities to improve local roads while helping create jobs and economic opportunities,” said Bradley Wieferich, DOT director. “These 11 agencies will be able to resurface roads, improve intersections and address overall safety in areas where there are high commercial, customer and employee traf-

fic.” At the same time, the agency awarded $11 million to fund a variety of VRU safety improvements. Separated pathways, pedestrian crossings, sidewalks and bike lanes will provide safe alternative transportation embodying the “mobility for everyone” concept. In November, New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy announced $250 million in Municipal Aid grants. Some 537 cities and towns will receive funds. The money will fund projects to advance road, bridge, safety and quality-of-life improvements, according to the governor’s office. The projects “demonstrate the Department of Transportation’s Commitment to Communities,” the office said in announcing the grants. The program drew 591 applications from 537 different municipalities and a total of $363 million was requested. The governor’s office said applications were rated on their merits by NJDOT staff and reviewed by an independent panel of New Jersey municipal engineers. Every municipality that applied for funding, all 537 municipalities, received a grant, totaling $150 million. “Having a safe and efficient transportation system throughout the state means investing in local roads and bridges, as well as state highways,” said Murphy. “Municipal Aid provides the funds for infrastructure projects in our towns and cities that significantly improve the quality of life for New Jersey residents.” see DOT page 54

Fran O’Connor, NJDOT commissioner, noted that once again “NJDOT was able to award funding to every community that applied.” Nearly 43 percent of the funding, or $64.3 million, is going to 179 municipalities with Complete Streets policies, said the governor’s office. Another $22.4 million is being awarded to 52 communities where the project meets equity criteria to benefit lowincome and minority populations. Municipalities were encouraged to consider using the program to fund projects that support safety, walking and biking in their communities. According to the governor’s office, in 2025, six percent of the grants represent this type of non-traditional project. Under the Municipal Aid grant program, each county is apportioned a share of the total funding based on population and the number of local centerline miles. Municipalities compete for portions of their county’s share and NJDOT provides 75 percent of the grant amount when a town awards a contract. The remaining 25 percent is provided upon completion of the project. Of the $150 million, $10 million is allotted for municipalities qualifying for Urban Aid. This summer the Ohio DOT issued $12.7 million in grants to eight communities under its Small City Program. The grants support critical road infrastructure improvements that enhance safety, accessibility and economic development, according to AASHTO. Ohio DOT’s Small City program focuses on supporting roadway, safety and pedestrian projects in cities with populations between 5,000 and 24,999 people. These cities also are not part of a Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), noted AASHTO. Ohio DOT said the funding awards are supported by the use of Toll Revenue Credits to reduce the local match required by each project sponsor. “Investing in local communities is critical in keeping Ohio’s infrastructure strong and communities connected,” said Gov. Mike DeWine. Pamela Boratyn, Ohio DOT director, said the program “is an essential tool for helping communities improve their roads, sidewalks, and safety infrastructure. Transportation is the backbone for moving people and goods as well as the catalyst for economic development opportunities. This innovative transportation program is a powerful tool for driving growth in communities across Ohio.” She added through these grants, the state provides “critical funding to improve trans-
portation infrastructure, enhance safety and support economic growth.” The Massachusetts DOT broke ground this year on the Lawrence Manchester Rail Corridor (LMRC) improvement project. The project, expected to be completed by summer of 2028, will turn part of an abandoned rail line into an approximately 1.5-mi. shared use path. Among other contracts, it includes rehabilitation of existing LMRC bridges over the Merrimack River and the South Canal. Also involved is construction of a new bridge over Manchester Street for the shared-use path and replacement of the Lowell Street bridge with a culvert structure. The Alabama DOT this year awarded more than $3.7 million in grants to 12 local road projects statewide. Under the second round of funding made available this year, it is part of Alabama DOT’s Annual Grant Program created by the Rebuild Alabama Act. The act was passed by the legislature and signed into law by Gov. Kay Ivey in 2019. The Oklahoma Transportation Commission signed off on an update to the state’s County Improvements for Roads and Bridges (CIRB) plan, said AASHTO. Set for fiscal years 2026 to 2030 the program includes nearly $930 million in upgrades to county roads and bridges across all 77 of Oklahoma’s counties. Overseen by the Oklahoma DOT, the CIRB Plan targets aging and deficient county infrastructure, according to the AASHTO Journal. Over the next five years, the program will replace or rehabilitate 230 county bridges. This includes 82 structures currently classified as structurally deficient or functionally obsolete, while improving 422 mi. of county roadways. “We’re proud to partner with county commissioners across Oklahoma to deliver these critical infrastructure projects,” said Tim Gatz, Oklahoma DOT executive director. “They will enhance safety, improve mobility and support economic development statewide.” The Minnesota DOT released $20 million in matching funds via its Transportation Economic Development (TED) program. The program supports local projects on the state highway system in Greater Minnesota and the Twin Cities Metro area. It makes grant money available to cities, counties, tribes and other government entities to leverage investment in transportation infrastructure. The agency said its TED program has provided more than $169 million in grants to 58 projects throughout Minnesota since 2011. CEG

and control,” said Cleveringa. “Whether you’re fine-tuning boom speed around a light pole or gearing up performance for wide-open stretches, the responsiveness is instant and tailored to the operator. It’s fingertip precision that empowers productivity.” In addition, the Smart Screen provides rapid diagnostics and access to system data. This allows operators to identify and resolve issues in minutes instead of hours, which reduces downtime and enables faster service and support, according to Diamond Mowers. Innovations That Protect Equipment, People With the hydraulic drive disengage option, operators can shut off the mower when not in use to help reduce wear, fuel consumption and heat buildup. In emergency situa-
tions or when servicing, the system can be disengaged at the push of a button for added safety. Additional built-in safeguards reinforce Diamond’s commitment to operator safety and uptime. These include: • Relocated hydraulic cooler — moved to the rear of the tractor for unobstructed headlight visibility in low-light conditions. • Hydraulic level sensor — alerts the operator and disables mower and boom controls if oil levels are too low, reducing the risk of cavitation and preventing equipment damage. • Premium hydraulic valve — engineered to resist contamination and ensure smoother, more responsive boom movement. “Our mission is to eliminate as many pain points as possible — from overheating components to blind spots that compromise safety — and provide a smarter way to work,” Cleveringa said. Roadside Demands Whether clearing highway shoulders, ditch lines, utility corridors or public park perimeters, Diamond Mowers’ redesigned mid-mount boom mower is built to thrive in municipal and commercial applications, according to Diamond Mowers. From real-time boom control to advanced diagnostics and safetyfirst features, it delivers durable, precision performance for the professionals who maintain the nation’s infrastructure. “This new and improved mower represents a thoughtful evolution in boom mowing,” said Cleveringa. “It’s purposefully built to be a partner in the field for the pros who keep our roads open and our communities connected.” For more information, visit diamondmowers.com.

Volvo Trucks Secures Major Order of 185 VNLs From Koch Volvo Trucks North America has secured a 185-unit order from Koch Trucking for its new long-haul truck, the Volvo VNL 860. The family-owned, full-service transportation provider, headquartered in Minneapolis, Minn., will integrate the new VNLs into their fleet of late-model tractors that operate across North America. “Koch Trucking has been a trusted transportation provider for nearly 50 years, and their commitment to investing in equipment that supports both their drivers and their customers aligns closely with our values at Volvo Trucks,” said Peter Voorhoeve, president of Volvo Trucks North America. “The all-new Volvo VNL 860 brings together efficiency, safety and driver comfort in a way that raises the bar for long-haul operations, and we’re proud to support Koch as they continue to grow and modernize their fleet.” Driver-Centric Features for Comfort, Productivity The new Volvo VNL 860, launched in 2024, is engineered around the needs of the professional driver, with a premium living and working environment and driving features that support comfort and safety on the road. Volvo’s I-Shift automated transmission and I-See predictive cruise control technology help deliver a smoother, more confident driving experience across Koch’s varied operating environments, according to Volvo. “The all-new Volvo VNL 860 is already proving its value with meaningful reductions in idle time and strong fuel efficiency on the road,” said Jeff Koch, chief operating officer of Koch Companies. “Maintaining one of the newest fleets in the industry allows us to maximize uptime and deliver consistent, reliable service our customers expect. As a family-owned business, investing in equipment that enhances driver comfort, safety

and sustainability isn’t just operationally smart, it’s foundational to who we are and how we plan for the future.” Enhancing Comfort, Safety, Efficiency, Long-Haul Performance Koch Trucking operates a modern fleet, all three years old or newer, with a longstanding commitment to investing in vehicles that maximize uptime, safety and reliability. The Volvo VNL 860 delivers the performance and reliability Koch Trucking depends on to run its fleet at the highest service standards, according to Volvo. Designed for long-haul productivity, the
new VNL combines aerodynamics with powertrain performance to help fleets achieve up to a 10 percent improvement in fuel efficiency compared to previous models, aligning directly with Koch’s commitment to operational excellence and longterm sustainability. Decades of Driver Commitment Founded in 1976 and family owned since its inception, Koch Trucking has built its reputation on providing a supportive, drivercentric experience. Regular home time remains central to the company’s culture, but driver well-being also hinges on comfort
during long-haul operations. The Volvo VNL 860 enhances that experience with a spacious cab designed as a true home away from home. Drivers benefit from reduced noise levels, ample storage, an integrated workstation and sleeper amenities such as heat and air conditioning without the need to idle. Koch drivers have long favored Volvo’s combination of safety, fuel efficiency and on-road comfort, attributes that align with the company’s focus on supporting the drivers who represent them mile after mile.

Felling to Showcase FT-10 DDPT Trailer at 2026 ARA Show Felling Trailers Inc. announced that it will be exhibiting at The ARA Show 2026 in Orlando, Fla., March 2-4, 2026, where it will showcase the FT-10 DDPT drop deck pan tilt bed utility trailer. This equipment hauler represents Felling’s commitment to engineering innovative solutions that make equipment transportation safer, easier and more efficient for rental professionals and their customers. Low-Clearance Equipment The FT-10 DDPT is designed to address the challenges of loading and transporting low-clearance machines. Whether you’re moving equipment from the warehouse to the work site or to the home site, this trailer’s gravity-based tilt mechanism provides a solution that streamlines your operations, according to Felling. The trailer is ideal for transporting mowers, scissor lifts, rollers, forklifts, landscape materials and other equipment that requires a low loading angle. Key Features, Specifications The FT-10 DDPT combines robust construction with user-friendly features, according to Felling. With a 79-in. width (inside wheelwells) and 12-ft. length (21-ft. over-
all), this trailer offers space for a variety of equipment while maintaining a manageable footprint. The 4-ft. dovetail paired with the 18 in. approach plate provides a gradual, smooth transition for low clearance equipment during loading and unloading. The DDPT’s gravity-tilt system uses a center pivot point to tilt the bed toward the ground. The pan tilt’s locking mechanism was designed to enhance the operator’s ease of use through its safety-minded, straightforward operation. With approximate load angles ranging from 7 to 13 degrees and an 18-in. approach plate, equipment operators will find loading a no hassle process, according to Felling. The trailer features fabricated steel pan
sides measuring 10 in. high, providing secure cargo containment while maintaining the low load height design that is essential for transporting low-clearance equipment. This unit features an optional 3/16-in. steel floor plate deck that ensures durability and longevity, with six 5/8-in. straight D-rings and two corner tie, tie-downs for securing your valuable equipment during transport. The FT-10 DDPT also is optioned with a 45 in. wide, 14 in. long and 8 in. deep lockable, bolt-on 2.5 cu. ft. toolbox, providing for safe storage of chains and tie-down straps. Durability, Safety The trailer rides on two 6,000-lb. axles

Electric brakes (forward self-adjusting) on both axles deliver confident stopping power, ensuring safe transport of cargo. The trailer comes equipped with ST225/75R 15 D tires optioned with custom black mod wheels, designed to handle the demands of the rental environment. With a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) of 9,980 lbs. and a payload capacity of 7,380 lbs., the FT-10 DDPT can handle substantial equipment loads. The adjustable 2-5/16-in. ball coupler accommodates various hitch heights. Safety and visibility are prioritized through LED lighting throughout the trailer, complete with a sealed wiring harness for reliability and a standard 7-pole RV plug for easy electrical connection. ARA Show 2026 Felling invites all attendees of The ARA Show 2026 to visit the Felling Trailers in Booth 5232 to see the FT-10 DDPT firsthand.

Skanska announced the construction completion of the new Rick Lott Technical College in Plant City, Fla.
Skanska announced the construction completion of the new Rick Lott Technical College in Plant City, Fla., a 52,000-sq.-ft. project that will serve as Hillsborough County Public Schools (HCPS) premier vocational education campus. Situated on 16 acres, the two-building complex, formerly known as Plant City Technical College, will significantly expand workforce training opportunities for both adult learners and high school students. Named after former Plant City Mayor Rick Lott, the revitalized technical college will host up to 900 student stations and will provide Career and Technical Education (CTE) courses designed to meet the evolving needs of local industries. Despite challenging weather and site conditions delaying the start of the project, the Skanska construction team was able to deliver the technical college project on schedule with some components completed weeks ahead of schedule. “Florida is experiencing remarkable growth in workforce development and CTE programs that are expanding access to highdemand career pathways,” said Daniel Abou-Jaoude, vice president of Skanska. “We’re honored to play a role in this momentum by delivering the modern Rick Lott Technical College that will equip students with the skills needed to fulfill indemand jobs.”
Designed by the architecture firm Harvard Jolly | PBK, the vocational college showcases a layout that supports student success and long-term career development. The facility boasts lab spaces, modern classrooms and fully equipped with administrative areas. It will offer Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs across high-demand fields including automotive, computer technology, construction, diesel technology, electrical systems, HVAC and welding. This project is among the latest workforce development centers in Florida, highlighting the growing demand for skilled trades careers both locally and nationally. The new educational campus will enable the seventhlargest school district in the country to expand and enhance its post-secondary educational programs, providing students with greater opportunities to pursue in-demand careers. As a result, Skanska has spearheaded the construction of numerous workforcefocused facilities across Florida that are now open, including the Dr. Michael A. Grego Leadership Center in Pinellas County and the Wilton Simpson Technical College in Hernando County. The firm also has recently delivered several K-12 projects across the state, including Newsome High School, NeoCity Academy and Collins K-8 School. For more information, visit skanska.com.

Vets Learn How to Repair, Rebuild Hurricane-Damaged Homes VETS from page 32
An aging workforce, low pay, dangerous work conditions and an uptick in immigration enforcement in the state are to blame for the labor shortage. Dave Sobush of the Florida College Access Network, an organization that helps young people find educational options beyond high school, said there are more students going into the skilled trades in Florida, but not enough to make up for everyone leaving the industry. Skilled trades workers need to complete apprenticeships, which can take three to four years to finish. Apprentices also start out making a lower salary and have to pay for tools and other materials. That can discourage students and families who might opt instead for a higher-paying job directly out of high school, Sobush noted. The reality is that jobs in every industry will require training moving forward, including in the trades, Sobush explained. He said that it is better to make the commitment in high school because it will pay off later, rather than trying to secure a construction job without anything other than a high school diploma or GED. “You don’t necessarily walk off the graduation stage and into the foreman’s office the

following day,” he said. “Jobs require training beyond high school, and sometimes that training occurs in conjunction with high school [through] career dual enrollment, which students do at the same time they’re taking their regular courses. [For] our skilled trades it is in the form of an apprenticeship, which is a partnership between an employer and a sponsoring entity.” He added that the administration of Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis has placed an emphasis on workforce training and education programs. According to the Florida Department of Education, $105 million has been awarded to high schools and colleges
preparing students for a career in the trades through the Florida Pathways to Career Opportunities Grant. DeSantis has committed more than $10 billion to workforce education and training in his two terms in office. In Florida, there are nearly 800,000 K-12 career and technical education students and 22,444 registered apprentices and pre-apprentices. Some experts, though, warn that it is not enough. Hurricane Repairs Are Falling Behind Seminole County Emergency Manager
Alan Harris told Central Florida Public Media if a shortage of construction workers is not soon fixed, it will make homeowners with hurricane damage have to wait longer for repairs. In Seminole, people were impacted by Hurricane Milton in 2024, followed by other storms and flooding events in 2025; lost construction labor has made it difficult for affected residents to recover. “We’ve been in a minor flood stage a couple times already this year,” he said. “[Additionally], we had an EF-2 tornado, one of the stronger tornadoes to hit Seminole County in the last couple of decades. So, that created additional work on top of the [repairs that were] already taking place from Hurricane Ian and Nicole in 2022.” Harris said in 2025, it’s not just a shortage of construction workers that is causing delays in home repairs and rebuilds. It’s other factors too, including a shortage of federal workers and rising tariffs on building supplies and materials, to name just a couple. Back at the HBI in Orlando, veteran and student Tim Zander said there is nothing else he would rather be doing. “I would say it’s in my blood,” he said.

J&D Plays Role in TDOT’s 2015 ‘Fast Fix 8’ in Nashville J&D from page 14
His association with Power Equipment also has helped to spread the word about J&D’s hauling efficiencies to other potential clients. “When Power needs a big Komatsu PC490 excavator in its Nashville store moved to a job site in Hermitage and wants us there within an hour to move that 110,000-pound machine, most haulers just can’t react that quickly — it’s not realistic for them. “While others may say they can deliver in two or three days, I tell my clients, ‘Don’t worry, it’s either going to be done today or it will be there when you wake up in the morning,’” he added. “That's what started selling our services as much as anything.” Jobsite Equipment Moves Another of J&DÊs Specialties Denney transports equipment for a long list of dealers and contractors that work in areas with a high concentration of new construction, such as the ever-growing Nashville and Knoxville markets. One of the major efforts that J&D was involved in was downtown Nashville’s “Fast Fix 8,” a 2015 Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) project to replace eight aging Interstate 40 bridges. Omaha-based Kiewit Corp. employed J&D’s drivers, lowboys and other equipment to move bridge panels across the work site at night, Denney said. In addition, he provided a storage yard for the contractor’s machines. Five years later, Kiewit returned to the Music City to widen and improve more than 7 mi. of I-440. Once again, the contracting firm called on J&D — this time to move all of Kiewit’s equipment from one side of the highway to the other. “At 5 a.m. and 5 p.m., seven days a week, we would deploy trucks out there to move equipment across the site,” Denney said. “TDOT wouldn’t let Kiewit drive an exca-

vator across a bridge, so I went out there on a Sunday morning and put the excavator on a trailer and carried it to the other side.” On many days, Kiewit would have up to 12 machines for J&D to transport wherever the contractor wanted them. “Then, at 5 p.m., we would be back down to the job site during the middle of Nashville’s rush hour to again move equipment,” he said. To Denney’s way of thinking, if he gets a contract to move a piece of machinery, he and his crew will do so regardless of the job’s size and difficulty. In fact, he said the biggest single machine that J&D ever hauled was a 150-ton (approximately 330,000 lbs.) Cat 6015 hydraulic mining shovel for Jones Bros., a heavy highway construction firm in Mt. Juliet, Tenn. “The customer wanted to move the shovel from one end of the job to the other, so we just built ramps and drove it up on the side of an old-school heavy-duty trailer. We also moved transformers that weighed close to 300,000 pounds and some substations.” J&D’s largest highway load called for using a truck and dolly system to transport a
190,000-lb. cooling tower from Chattanooga, Tenn., to Delaware for a chemical company. The structure was carried on a 16-axle dolly setup, which altogether weighed 300,000 lbs. (approximately 150 tons) and was 190 ft. long. The key to making such a delicate move, he said, is calculating the proper weight transference while considering the vehicle’s acceleration, braking, and turning. Many Contractors Also Rent Storage Space From Denney Denney also started buying and grading various properties in the region to serve as equipment laydown yards for his clients. He created the lucrative service in 2008 after learning the Nashville location of Garney Construction needed larger space for its idle machines. “I was at their office and saw that they had a small yard that made it difficult to move equipment in and out of,” he said. “After talking to the right person, we began renting space to them here in Lebanon. Now we've got probably 25 storage customers and many more laydown yards.” So far, Denney has purchased 40 acres for

developing storage space, and he has another 100 acres on hand for future use. The multiacre yards are built by J&D using the construction pieces it buys from Power Equipment — further proof that their business collaboration is a two-way street. Among the construction equipment purchased through Power were two large Komatsu PC360 excavators, a D61 midsized dozer, a pair of Takeuchi TL12 skid steers, and a Takeuchi TB290 mini-excavator. For the hauling side of the business, J&D also has acquired Etnyre lowboy trailers, he said. “When Kiewit needed four acres to be excavated for their use on the Cumberland City [Tenn.] gas plant, I knew we could build it faster than anybody else. So, my crew did all that grading work for them. Our construction equipment is used solely for developing my own personal properties.” In Kiewit’s case, its permanent laydown yards are in areas where it has a long-term lease with J&D. If the contractor were to get another nearby job that required more room for its machines, Joey Denney said J&D could then offer a short-term lease. “I think that’s one of the things that’s helped our customers,” she said. “It was born out of a need to service our customers fully. Having that long- and short-term option — an extra three, six or 12 months — means they aren’t committed to 10 acres for the next five years.” After working closely with Power Equipment for most of J&D’s 25 years, Joe and Joey Denney’s admiration for the Tennessee dealership continues to grow. “They remain one of our top customers every single year,” said Joey. “They’re a company and an organization that, from our perspective, has it all together. Power is certainly the most organized company that we deal with, and they continue to be very loyal to us.” CEG (All photos courtesy of J&D Specialized Equipment Hauling.)

Barges Carry Equipment, Materials for Alligator Bridge Work

Fall 2029 is the expected date to open the new bridge to traffic, with demolition of the current bridge scheduled for spring 2030. ALLIGATOR from page 1
Bridge is part of the U.S. 64 corridor that leads to inland points west. According to Hernandez, the first pile on the project was driven in February 2025. “The test pile program is an approach that NCDOT takes on all large coastal bridges. The program allows the department to simulate pile installation scenarios, so that the proper foundation and/or proper equipment can be selected for engineering and economic reasons. “The test pile was successful in that we were able to establish appropriate pile lengths, which benefits us both structurally and economically by saving us from a prolonged completion time.” Skanska USA serves as prime contractor for the new bridge that will connect Tyrrell and Dare counties. Hernandez said the construction and development company has a proven track record, which makes it a good fit for the project. “Skanska has experience working with some of the components being installed on this bridge, such as large pre-cast pilings. They have a regional office in nearby Hampton Roads, Va., where they have engineering and equipment resources readily available.” Hernandez said when working on a bridge replacement, maintaining vehicular traffic on U.S. 64 and marine vessel traffic on the Intracoastal Waterway is essential. However, since workers are not constructing in the same footprint as the old bridge, issues with utilities and impacts to users are not as difficult. Still, he acknowledged that performing construction and getting workers and materials delivered in a remote area can be difficult. “Working on the Alligator River is similar to working on an inland sound with a large, open expanse. These expanses bring with them the possibility of significant wave action and high winds, not only on the surface of the water, but at the top of the cranes. “We have been fortunate to this point was hot, it was relatively dry. Of course, in the future, we will always need to contend with any summer/fall tropical systems or fall/winter/spring nor’easters that may occur over the next four

years.” Last summer, crews placed concrete for the low-level bridge supports and installed temporary work trestles in shallow water/lowland wetlands areas that will facilitate building the 3.2-mi.-long bridge. With more than 50 percent of the pilings for the entire

structure have been installed, Crews paused in-river pile driving between July 15 and Sept. 30 for an environmental moratorium related to fish spawning. Construction calls for building two 12-ft. travel lanes with 8-ft. breakdown lanes. The concrete deck on the bridge will be 9-in. thick cast-in-place concrete that will be screeded with a bridge finishing machine to provide the lanes and shoulders. Regarding excavation, there’s .5-mi. of roadway work on either side of the bridge that involves moving unsuitable material to a depth of 6-8 ft. and backfilling it with a sandy granular material so that the roadway embankment can be built on a stable surface. Heavy machinery being used includes three barge-mounted ringer cranes; three barge-mounted crawler cranes; and two crawler cranes on work trestles, as well as two large tugboats, three push-boats and six aluminum work skiffs. Six barges that are used for equipment or transporting materials also are required, along with excavators, bulldozers, rollers and dump trucks for roadway construction. D180 diesel hammers are being used to install the 36-in. square and 54in. diameter cylinder pre-stressed piles. Piles range in length from 90-120 ft. long and are embedded in the bed of the river 60-90 ft. Pre-cast concrete piling; 36-in. square 54-in. diameter cylinders; pre-stressed concrete girders; 45-in., 72-in. and 96-in. Florida I-beam girders and cast-in-place concrete of at least 4,500 psi that utilizes glass fiber reinforced polymer bar are among the chief materials needed to complete the work. Fall 2029 is the expected date to open the new bridge to traffic, with demolition of the current bridge scheduled for spring 2030. All components of the structure will be removed in their entirety and will be processed into recyclable products or used as an inland artificial reef. Hernandez said working on a project that will have such a lasting impact is meaningful for all involved. “The department and community are pleased to see work on a new structure that provides for a stable and reliable vital transportation corridor between the coast and inland communities. It means changing the landscape and providing a reliable traffic corridor for the state and its visitors for generations to come, while improving a vital hurricane evacuation route.” CEG
