Pittsburgh-based geotechnical general contractor Nicholson Construction is teaming up with TREVIICOS for soil improvements to the Charlestown Bus Facility in Massachusetts to stabilize the shoreline and improve the yard.

 The Charlestown Bus Facility, located along the Mystic River, is the largest of the Massachusetts Bay Transport Authority’s maintenance facilities.  The specialty work of the project includes jet grouting a total of ~1,220 4-7-foot diameter by 20-to-35 foot-deep columns for soil stabilization to support a new shoreline embankment.

 “These are the kinds of challenging projects that we, as a company, look forward to,” said Luca Barison, Vice President, Major Projects, Nicholson Construction. “We’ve had several successful projects with TREVIICOS and we’re looking forward to another one.”

 The General Contractor for the project is Massachusetts-based firm Middlesex. The overall project, valued at $31.7M will run through the summer of 2019.
