Current Projects

Interstate 84, Ten Mile IC to Meridian IC Reconstruction
Ada County, Idaho

CPC will play a critical role in this fast track project to reconstruct both east- and westbound lanes on heavily traveled Interstate 84 in Boise, Idaho. CPC is responsible for the concrete median barrier, the concrete paving and modifying both overpass structures to accommodate the added lanes of traffic. Modifications include excavation and a soil nail wall to allow for a traveling lane between the current abutment and pier at the existing Meridian Road interchange. Other modifications include protection of the existing overpass piers at both Meridian and Ten Mile Roads.

In addition to the structural work, CPC will pave approximately 143,000 square yards of Portland cement concrete pavement in two planned phases. CPC will be responsible for the manufacture of the 45,000 cubic yards of concrete that will be placed by our labor and equipment.

This work is an Idaho Transportation Department GARVEE-funded project. When complete, it will make a significant difference to local commuters from the west end of the Treasure Valley.

US-2 Havre, Montana

CPC is the subcontractor responsible for 85,536 square meters of 230mm plain doweled concrete pavement through the city limits of Havre along existing route US Highway 2. The overall project involves reconstruction of approximately 2.4 miles of roadway and upon completion, will include 2 lanes in each direction with center turn lanes and shoulder parking. Construction will impact travelers to and from Canada, as well as Hill County residents and motorists along Montana’s Hi-Line as US-2 is called with the locals.

Interstate 80, State Street to 1300 East
Salt Lake City, Utah

CPC will play an integral role in the reconstruction of Interstate 80 through a section of Salt Lake City. The reconstruction includes the improvements:

  • General Interchange Improvements at Purpose State Lane, Auxiliary Lane Street, 700 East, and 1300 East
  • New Concrete Pavement between each Interchange both eastbound and westbound totaling over 200,000 square yards
  • Bridges at New State Street, 300 East, 500 East, 600 East, 700 East, 900 East and Highland Drive
  • New concrete barrier between east- and westbound traffic

CPC, a subcontractor, is responsible for the concrete pavement and the concrete barrier for the complicated project. In order to expedite the completion of the I-80 Project and provide the least impact to residents, businesses, and commuters, UDOT will implement three innovative contracting methods for the construction of I-80. These are Construction Manager General Contractor (CMGC) delivery method, rapid bridge construction, and the use of reversible lanes. CMGC is a construction delivery method that accelerates the overall schedule by hiring a contractor early to work hand-in-hand with the design team. This allows the contractors to provide input on the design of the project from a constructability standpoint and also enables construction concurrent with the design. By choosing a CMGC delivery, UDOT will be able to reduce the overall project schedule by months. In addition to the CMGC delivery, UDOT is also utilizing reversible lanes to help minimize impacts to the commuting public by temporarily widening I-80 to accommodate 5 lanes of traffic (3 lanes/2 lanes), allowing the contractor to change the direction of the third lane to ease congestion during peak traffic hours. The third innovative technique, rapid bridge construction, allows crews to construct the bridge off-site, teardown the existing structure, place the new bridge, and build the tie-ins to I-80. The actual replacement of each bridge can be done in less than a week with minimal impacts to the traveling public. The entire project is scheduled for completion in Fall 2009.

Interstate 84, Pleasant Valley to Durbin Creek Road
Baker County, Oregon

CPC is contracted to place 106,500 square yards of continuously reinforced concrete pavement and 38,700 square yards of plain doweled concrete pavement for the Oregon Department of Transportation's $33.8 million dollar project, Interstate 84 Pleasant Valley – Durbin Creek Road Section, a reconstruction of approximately 10 miles of I-84. The remainder of the project is approximately 20 miles and consists of two large curve corrections. The curves will be control blasted and excavated and hauled to designated dump sites. New sections of road, storm drainage and a concrete barrier will be built to lessen curvature of the road. In addition the project includes installation of 10,000 linear feet of electrical trenching, variable message signs, weather information and traffic stations, and a large sign bridge. Work on the project began March 1, 2008, and is scheduled to be completed by Nov. 1, 2010.

Eagle Island State Park – Eagle Island Bridge

CPC is the prime contractor for this project, located in the 546-acre Eagle Island State Park. The project consists of a new 300' concrete girder bridge over the north channel of the Boise River, entry road improvements, and retaining walls. The new bridge will accommodate vehicle, pedestrian, and equestrian traffic. The bridge is part of Idaho Department of Parks & Recreation Eagle Island State Park Master Plan to connect Highway 44 to Eagle Island State Park. After bridge construction, the north portion of the park will be developed for camping areas, kayak/canoe launching sites, picnic areas, an education center, and an amphitheater. Construction will begin in Summer 2008 and should be complete by Spring 2009.

Franklin Road Interchange

CPC is the prime contractor for this $24.8 million interchange replacement in Caldwell, Idaho. Construction will start in the fall of 2006 and be complete in 2008. The existing two-lane structure will be replaced with a 5-lane concrete-decked steel girder bridge. All four ramps will be replaced, two with concrete. Additionally, Franklin Road will be paved with concrete from Specht Ave. to Aviation Way.
