As part of the Fargo Moorhead Diversion project, I-29 was raised to allow a new diversion channel to pass under the highway. Park Construction worked as a subcontractor, completing the earthwork, aggregates, and utilities for this project.
During the first year, Park Construction constructed a 3.3 mile; 4 lane temporary bypass for highway traffic. This included hauling of all necessary materials to raise I-29 to stockpiles. Once the traffic was switched to the temporary bypass, Park removed the existing concrete to an onsite crushing operation. All crushed material was utilized as aggregate base later in the project.
Year two consisted of Park placing all preloaded materials needed to raise I-29 for the 2 new bridges and reconstruction of County Highway 81 & 18. This year, work will be done to complete the construction of the levees and removal of the embankment used to construct the temporary bypass.
