Gerald Desmond Bridge
With a design and construction proposal of $649.5 million, the joint venture team headed by Shimmick Construction Company Inc., FCC Construction S.A. and Impregilo S.p.A. is the apparent “best value” proposer for the Gerald Desmond Bridge Replacement Project design-build contract, Port of Long Beach and Caltrans officials announced Friday, May 4.
Staff expects to submit a recommendation on May 14 to the Port’s Board of Harbor Commissioners to consider a “notice of intent” to award the contract. A decision by the Board on the actual award of the contract is expected in late June, with construction kickoff set in early 2013, and final design starting soon after the contract is signed.
