I-70 Floyd Hill Rock Blasting
Eisenhower Tunnel, CO
Project Overview
Partnering with Kraemer North America, this project seeks to transform an eight-mile stretch of the I-70 Mountain Corridor by incorporating rock blasting, adding a third westbound travel lane, reconstructing bridges, and enhancing safety through strategic roadway realignment.
Services Provided
-
Utilized advanced LiDAR and terrestrial scanning technologies to create an accurate and detailed 3D model of existing conditions, addressing the project's complex requirements and aiding in public communication regarding blasting operations.
