Allison Creek Hydroelectric Design-Build Project
Valdez, Alaska
McMillen Jacobs Associates
Boise, Idaho
The new 6.7-megawatt hydroelectric facility significantly reduces Valdez's
reliance on diesel fuel generators. The project team's design overcame a
host of environmental, safety and public health concerns, including
impact on operations at the nearby Valdez Marine Terminal, the
terminus of the Alaska Pipeline System. The project includes an
innovative concrete gravity dam with a penstock system that delivers
water 1.25 miles to a power generation plant. Because of a 1,200-foot
elevation drop in the penstock system, the design was refined to
accommodate changes in water pressure. Sections of the penstock were
buried to protect from freezing and avalanches and to minimize impacts
to wildlife. The project reduces diesel fuel costs annually by $2.4 million
and eliminates 12,000 tons of carbon dioxide emissions.

I-70 Mountain Corridor Eastbound Express Lane
Idaho Springs, Colorado
HDR
Denver, Colorado
A new express lane delivers much-needed congestion relief, improves travel
reliability and dramatically reduces times to clear emergencies. Located
between U.S. Route 40 at Empire Junction and the Veterans Memorial
Tunnels, the project required the complete overhaul of two major
interchanges critical to the economic viability of Idaho Springs, with a
mandate of minimal disruption to motorists. An innovative accelerated
bridge design cut construction time in half on one interchange, while the
second interchange required a full reconstruction but remained in use. A
complete parallel bridge replacement and ramps were constructed before
taking the existing interchange offline for upgrades.

Automated People Mover and ConRAC

Tampa, Florida
Known as SkyConnect, the 1.4-mile, three-station Automated People
Mover (APM) provides fast, safe and sustainable transportation for Tampa
International Airport's steadily increasing passenger volume. Similarly, the
2.44-million-square-foot consolidated rental car facility (ConRAC) offers
state-of-the-art rental car operations, which previously had been operating
in cramped, near-capacity facilities. Effective combinations of precast and
cast-in-place concrete, and structural steel solved challenges such as the
APM's horizontally curving rail spans of more than 250 feet long and
stations located 120 feet above existing roads. Together, the APM and
ConRAC will eliminate nearly 3 million vehicle trips on airport roads and
1,600 tons of carbon emissions each year.
