LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jan. 24, 2013--
AECOM Technology Corporation (NYSE: ACM), a leading provider of
professional technical and management support services for public and
private clients in more than 130 countries around the world, announced
today that it has been awarded a US$15-million contract by the
Pennsylvania Turnpike Commission (PTC) to reconstruct 4 miles of the
turnpike mainline near Morgantown.
The AECOM team will provide design services involving all aspects of
project delivery from preliminary engineering through final design,
including environmental documentation, roadway and structure plans,
hydrologic and hydraulics reports, permit applications, traffic-control
plans, utility-clearance documentation and right-of-way plans.
“AECOM’s dedication to delivering smart and creative solutions on
current and past projects for the PTC positioned us well for this
project,” said AECOM Chairman and Chief Executive Officer John M.
Dionisio. “We are driven by the success of our clients’ projects and
remain committed to finding the best solutions for PTC and the local
community.”
The section of the turnpike will be widened from four lanes to six, and
the Morgantown interchange, along with six bridges, will be
reconstructed.
The project is part of the PTC’s capital program to maintain roadways
and relieve traffic congestion along key stretches of the highway. More
than 100 miles of the highway have already been rebuilt with a total
design and construction value of approximately US$2 billion.
