The Florida Dept. of Transportation (FDOT) has named Lane Construction Corp., in a joint venture with Superior Construction, as the preferred team in exclusivity for the $1-billion project to modernize the Westshore Interchange of Interstate 275 and State Road 60 in Tampa, according to an announcement from Lane.
The joint venture, in which Lane has a 50% stake, has already signed a $10-million contract with FDOT for the planning phase of the project, developing a multi-year program to rebuild one of the busiest interchanges in the city. The planning phase, according to Lane, is set to be complete by November, with construction slated to begin by spring 2024 with a separate contract.
