Superior Construction and WSP are replacing the Brooks Bridge in Okaloosa County — a 2,100-foot structure built to handle hurricanes, vessel impacts, and growing traffic on the Gulf Coast.

The project includes wider shoulders, shared-use paths, new overlooks, and Florida’s first wax-filled post-tensioned girders for long-term durability. Shallow water, tight access, tough sands, and utility relocations have made this one of the region’s most complex bridge builds.

A critical part of northeast Florida's transportation network, the Interstate 10 and U.S. 301 interchange near Baldwin is receiving a $107 million major upgrade. The existing interchange features two truck stops, drawing a significant number of semi-trucks. However, it also has several deficiencies, including substandard loop ramps, a deceleration ramp that is too short, not enough queue space on U.S. 301, a short weaving distance between loop ramps and U.S. 301, and there is not enough vertical clearance under the bridges. See how Superior Construction is working with the Florida Department of Transportation to ease congestion on the interchange.

A unique $60 million stadium upgrade in Orlando, Florida, is aiming to enhance the fan experience at the city-owned Camping World Stadium. This renovation will complete an upgrade planned in 2007, as part of a $1.1 billion Venues initiative between the city and Orange County to fund a performing arts center, a basketball arena, and a renovation of the stadium. See how Barton Malow is working on the current project which adds premium and general admission seating and suites; expands restrooms, concession spaces, and corridors; and upgrades parking.
