Private Work Showcases South
Division’s Capabilities
(1st / 2nd Quarters 2008)
In the private sector, Ranger South
has had plenty of opportunity lately to showcase its wide range
of capabilities. From moving and grading acres of earth for site
preparation, to applying the finishing touches that improve
pedestrian safety, the division has shown its commitment to
quality and attentive service.
Since last summer, Ranger South has provided complete site
development work for a CVS Pharmacy, an Office Depot, a BP gas
station and a Basset Furniture store, among other South Florida
private-sector projects.
The work included excavation, grading, underground utilities,
roadway and parking lot construction, asphalt paving, and
concrete curb and sidewalk construction.
Similar work is underway on a number of additional contracts,
including a Park-N-Go in Port Everglades. In Coconut Creek, the
division has been contracted to provide full paving services for
the Promenade at Coconut Creek, a business office park, and The
Seneca apartment complex.
In other private-sector work, Ranger South continues to make
good progress preparing the site for a new Vecenergy petroleum
complex at Port Everglades in Fort Lauderdale, which will add to
the region’s petroleum supply. The division’s contract involves
12 acres of land-clearing, earthwork and soil stabilization,
along with roadway and parking lot construction, asphalt paving,
and underground utilities installation. The site package also
includes concrete curbs and sidewalks, signage and pavement
markings, and electrical, lighting and security systems.
Due for completion by the end of the year,
Vecenergy's petroleum
storage and distribution center will include 11 tanks with a
capacity of 1.35 million barrels.
To keep its wide range of projects on schedule and ensure the
best results for its customers in the private and public
sectors, the South Division coordinates all major project
details between its Miami and Pompano Beach offices.
Management also strives to maintain collaborative relationships
with its partners and clients.
