Evolving and Expanding
In nearly a century of doing business, some services at
Garver have been mainstays, like superior bridge and roadway design, and
unwavering customer relationships. But just as strong is our instinct to
evolve.
Fast-Track Lighting Upgrades
With one of three runways already closed for construction,
replacing the Runway 4R-22L centerline lights was a critical task considering
it would leave the airport with one open runway. Garver was entrusted to
complete the repairs under an ambitious timeline needed to minimize impact on
airport operations.
Back-to-Back Triple-Lane Roundabouts
New commercial development serves as a boon to any city. But
just as important is making sure drivers can easily navigate their way in and
out of that space. To accommodate up to 55,000 daily motorists on Highway 286
near I-40 in Conway, Garver created what is believed to be the first
back-to-back, triple-lane roundabouts in the United States, which significantly
improved the operational performance and safety of the interchange.
Keeping Programs on Task
A publicly-funded highway program that affects almost every
corner of a state can be a daunting task. Take the Arkansas State Highway and
Transportation Department’s Connecting Arkansas Program (CAP), a $1.8 billion,
10-year program funded by a voter-approved half-cent sales tax that includes 36
highway projects. Someone has to be behind the scenes keeping track of all the
moving parts.
Furthering Expertise
As the newest member of Garver’s rapidly growing Water
Technology Team, Dr. John Kabouris will serve as Water Technology Leader with
more than two decades of experience in various aspects of environmental
engineering.
