Description: The South Dakota Department of Transportation Veterans Parkway Project (Rice Street to Interstate 90 in Sioux Falls) was chosen as the recipient of the 2021 American Concrete Pipe Association Project Achievement Award. The purpose of the annual project achievement award is to recognize agencies who demonstrate creative and innovative accomplishments through projects that have been designed utilizing precast concrete pipe or boxes.
“The Veterans Parkway Project in the Sioux Falls community involved unique challenges due to the deep fills, sensitive environmental concerns, and multiple drainage ways within or near the grading work,” says Travis Dressen, Mitchell Region Engineer for the SDDOT. “The project team developed feasible solutions and worked through initial challenges during construction that resulted in an outstanding final product.”
