Companies Win Combined Sewer Overflow Tunnel Construction Contract
The joint venture team of The Lane Construction Corporation’s subsidiary, S.A. Healy Company, and Salini Impregilo have won a design-bid-build contract for a combined sewer overflow tunnel project in Indiana, valued at $188 million.
The Three Rivers Protection & Overflow Reduction Tunnel will be located in Fort Wayne and includes a deep rock tunnel, drop shafts, and consolidation sewers, to collect and convey combined sewer overflow from eight locations along the St. Mary and Maumee Rivers. Once completed, the combined sewer overflow tunnel system will reduce 90% of combined sewage overflows into the rivers, which occur during large rain storms.
Work is expected to begin in the spring of 2017 and to be completed by mid-year 2021.
