Written By Bailey Shortt

Project Overview

As part of the U.S. Route 460 Poplar Creek Phase B project, Terra Tech Engineering provided comprehensive quality control services, including concrete field testing. This phase of construction features a new four-lane roadway and a 175-foot-tall bridge, set to be the second tallest in Virginia. Ensuring the integrity of the concrete used in critical infrastructure like this is essential for long-term durability and safety.
