What we do together

  • We have built and maintained a solid working relationship with INDOT.
  • After years of effort, a limited-access US 31 from South Bend to Indianapolis will happen sooner than anticipated.
  • With our assistance, CR 17 has become an important economic corridor.
  • Through cooperation, SR 19 from Lusher Ave to the US 20 Bypass was accomplished years before it was scheduled.
  • We have had vital roles in local rail grade separations, municipal airport tower, Cassopolis Street, and Major Moves.
