The replacement of Highway 1’s Nicomen River Bridge is officially complete, offering safer and more reliable travel for drivers while being better equipped to withstand extreme weather. The new two-lane bridge replaces the previous structure, which sustained damage from heavy rains and floods in November 2021. Crews strengthened the foundation, reinforced the embankment to prevent erosion and rehabilitated pavement on the bridge approaches – ensuring long-term durability. Congratulations to everyone involved in this project!
As we kick off Women in Construction Week, we’re proud to celebrate the talented and hardworking women who are essential to Kiewit’s success. Women across our organization — whether in the field as craft professionals, engineers and project managers or in the office as designers, accountants and lawyers — bring their expertise to every aspect of our work. This week, we recognize their resilience, commitment to safety and quality and the path they’re paving for future generations in the industry.
It’s been a year since Kiewit Corporation finalized its acquisition of Weeks Marine, Inc. (WMI), a leading maritime contractor in North America. As a result, Kiewit is formally expanding its expertise. “We’ve gone from specializing in seven market segments to focusing on eight, with marine being the eighth market as a result of our 2023 acquisition of Weeks Marine,” said Executive Vice President Dave Miles. With a 10-year opportunity forecast of $128 billion, the marine market is full of opportunities, explains Miles. “Before Weeks, Kiewit performed a number of marine projects on both the east and west coast and in the Gulf of Mexico, but most of that work was in support of heavy, large construction projects,” he said. “However, the acquisition of Weeks has really put us in a different position, specifically in dredging projects around North America.”
