These projects are the very embodiment of the potential and promise of the nations construction industry said Doug Pruitt the incoming president of AGC. These projects are more than a simple task they are the kind of jobs that challenge our skills stretch our imaginations and capture our fancy.
Pruitt noted that the I-35W Bridge project was selected as the Aon Build America Grand Award winner because Flatiron Construction and Manson Construction demonstrated hard work and diligence in completing the project three months early while overcoming difficult challenges and constraints under the watchful eye of the public and the media. More importantly Pruitt added the project was crucial in helping rebuild Americans confidence in the safety of the nations bridges.
