Government Projects
Our team has worked with many respected public owners performing construction on large-scale projects such as airports, road systems, defense facilities, port terminals and collaboration with the US Army Corps of Engineers.
Throughout its history, government works have been a broad term dealing with capital improvement projects including construction of civil structures, public buildings, and service facilities. These include projects like Blue Water Highway, a devastated victim of Hurricane Ike’s destruction.
