Business Wire
Granite (NYSE:GVA) has been awarded a subcontract worth
approximately $31 million by prime contractor Skanska USA, to work
on Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT) and Sound
Transit’s highway project to provide roadway improvements along a
four-and-a-half-mile corridor on Interstate 405 (I-405) in Bothell,
WA. The project will be included in Granite’s first-quarter
CAP.
Key features of the project include increased express toll lane
(ETL) capacity, direct access to state highways, and enhanced
regional transit service connections. The project aims at improving
transportation mobility and reliability throughout Bothell and
surrounding regions. Motorists can look forward to one new ETL in
each direction between south of SR 522 and SR 527, widening I-405
through the SR 522 interchange, building direct access ramps to
ETLs at SR 522, and partial direct access interchange at SR 527
connecting Canyon Park and Ride.
Additionally, enhanced connections will be established for
regional transit service at both the University of Washington
Bothell Station (SR 522) and Canyon Park Station (SR 527). A new
transit-only Bus Rapid Transit station will also be introduced
along the I-405 corridor.
“Granite is excited to build a local relationship with Skanska
in the Seattle market and continue to support WSDOT and the
traveling public in Western Washington,” said Beth Duffus, Granite
Project Manager. “Supporting WSDOT on this project complements
Granite's vertically integrated business in Seattle as Granite's
Smith Island asphalt plant will produce 195,000 tons of 1/2" HMA
and recycle 50,000 tons of RAP. Securing this backlog helps the
region with consistent paving backlog for the next three years and
provides a strong foundation to continue to grow this side of the
business.”
The project is anticipated to begin in April 2024 and Granite’s
project scope is expected to be completed by December 2027.
