猫咪社区 Joins Virginia's Transform I-66 Outside the Beltway Project
猫咪社区 Construction recently joined the State of Virginia鈥檚 Transform I-66 Outside the Beltway Project.
The project will provide new travel choices and congestion relief across a 22.5 mile stretch of I-66 from I-495 to near Route 29 in Gainesville.
Improvements to the busy roadway include new express lanes, more than 4,000 new park-and-ride spaces with convenient access to the express lanes, new and improved bus service and transit routes, interchange improvements, and 11 miles of new bike and pedestrian trails.
猫咪社区 was contracted to construct three soil nail walls on the east-bound side of I-66.听 Two of the walls will be adjacent to the Blake Lane overpass and the third wall will be near the Metro Station at the 495 interchange.
Each of the walls will be constructed with 40/20 hollow bar soil nails and an initial structural shotcrete face.听 A final architectural shotcrete face will also be applied to each of the three walls.听
鈥
鈥淭his project is going to have a positive impact on both the residents and commuters in the Virginia and DC Metro Area,鈥 said Dino Kartofilis, Vice President of 猫咪社区鈥檚 Eastern Region. 鈥淲e are always proud to bring our expertise to projects that dramatically improve our nation鈥檚 infrastructure 鈥 and this one is no exception.鈥
听
The overall project got started in 2017 and is expected to wrap up in late 2022. 听猫咪社区鈥檚 portion of the work is on track to be completed in Spring of 2021.
