Description In 1999 this project was one of the largest projects ever put out to bid in Northern Virginia by the Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT). Phase 2/3 is the first major project awarded ($90.5 Million) of an ultimate eight phased project. This opportunity marked a major milestone for Shirley Contracting Company, LLC in its history. The project also contained a "No Excuse Incentive Clause" which provided a $10 million dollar bonus for completion by a very aggressive date but also meant the waiver of any pending claims in order to receive the incentive. Working in an interchange that had close to 375,000 vehicles per day passing through presented a significant challenge. In four years Shirley constructed 15 bridges, 35,000 square meters of MSE retaining wall, demolished five existing bridges, moved more than 350,000 cubic meters of earth, laid over 10,000 meters of pipe, placed 150,000 metric tons of aggregate base, and placed over 160,000 metric tons of asphalt. This landmark project placed Shirley Contracting Company in the national spotlight. Shirley successfully completed the project despite many obstacles and challenges and achieved the incentive dates. This large, complex, and challenging effort has become synonymous with Shirley Contracting Company, LLC.
