Dirt Work
Construction projects like South Veterans Parkway are designed to be as efficient and cost-effective as possible, including excavating dirt and other materials for the road bed in areas close to the project site.
-
Save time
Hauling trucks travel shorter distances, saving time and money while minimizing impacts to the traveling public and environment.
-
Manage water
Excavated areas also serve as future detention ponds, which mitigate potential impacts to downslope properties by holding storm water runoff and releasing it at a slower rate.
-
Reduce cost
There are cost savings from purchasing land for excavation near the project area rather than relying on more expensive excavation areas further away.
