Vecellio & Grogan has been subcontracted by APAC to provide the
earthmoving and pipe work on a new segment of SR-288 in Richmond, VA.
The design-build project adjoins V&G’s current
prime contract there, pushing the total value of
V&G's two Richmond jobs to well over
$50 million.

Bridge Work Underway On Richmond,
VA, Project
(4th Quarter 2001)
Work is underway on four of the six bridges on V&G’s $47.6 million
SR-288 job in Richmond, VA. Substructure concrete work will be finished
by February on both the east and westbound spans on Route 60, which
crosses SR-288 on the north end of the 4.5-mile highway project.
V&G crews are working on the piers for the Otterdale Road Bridge,
which spans a railroad and ties Otterdale Road into SR-60 just west of
SR-288.
At the southeast end of the project, work has begun on the footers
for Charter Colony Road bridge.
