ACEC/MA Announces Louis Berger as 2017 winner of Bronze Engineering Excellence Award

7/18/17

The American Council of Engineering Companies of Massachusetts (ACEC/MA) has named Louis Berger, headquartered in Needham, as a winner of its 2017 Bronze Engineering Excellence Award for work on the Route 2 Safety Improvement project at Crosby’s Corner in Lincoln and Concord, Massachusetts.

The 2017 Engineering Excellence Awards were announced at the recent ACEC/MA Engineering Excellence and Awards Gala with emcees Carol Gladstone, Commissioner of the Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance and Commissioner Leo Roy of the Department of Conservation and Recreation.

The Route 2/Route 2A Crosby’s Corner intersection has become one of the busiest and most dangerous intersections in the state. This project provided safety improvements at Crosby's Corner; this was accomplished by constructing local service roads which run parallel to Route 2, and a new roadway with a 135-foot single span bridge bypass at the intersection at Crosby’s Corner. The benefits of the project include the ability to safely and efficiently accommodate traffic and to provide safe access to the residences and businesses located along the project corridor and preserving the ecosystem in the area.

“The winning projects exemplify ingenuity and professionalism and represent the breadth of engineering’s contribution to our everyday lives,” said ACEC/MA President Mark S. Bartlett PE, Senior Associate at Stantec, Inc. “They are outstanding examples of how engineers connect communities, provide safe and reliable water and energy, and make our buildings safe and efficient. The professional engineers and their colleagues at our member firms are dedicated to working on quality infrastructure, which wouldn’t otherwise exist. These outstanding projects are but a few examples of the quality work designed by Massachusetts engineering firms.”
