Congratulations to M

Happy Transportation Tuesday! Even as temperatures dropped, CPM Constructors crews kept projects moving across Maine. From pouring a new concrete bridge deck in Wilton, to making critical repairs on the Saco River Bridge along the Maine Turnpike/I-95, the team has been tackling important work head-on. Crews have also been busy installing pile in the median of I-95 at Exit 15 in Yarmouth for the new Route 1 bridge, while continuing progress on Phase 2 of the Cousin’s River Bridge between Freeport and Yarmouth. Great work by everyone out in the field!
