Ranger Completes $105
Million SR-414 Project
(1st/2nd Quarter 2009)
A ribbon-cutting ceremony marks the opening
of a 2.7-mile, Ranger-built section of SR-414, shown in
part
below.
Ranger Construction, through its Winter
Garden-based North Division, has
completed its largest project to date, construction of a
2.7-mile elevated section of SR-414/John Land Apopka Expressway
in Orange County, Florida.
Valued at more than $105 million, the contract included moving
and grading three million cu. yds. of earth and building 23
sections of reinforced earth wall reaching as high as 60 ft.
A grand opening celebration held in February featured a
ribbon-cutting ceremony and a 5K run to benefit charity. The new
roadway, in conjunction with an adjoining section due for
completion later this year by another contractor, will provide a
more direct link between SR-429 (the Western Beltway) and US-441
north of Orlando.
