Kiewit is helping lead one of Washington's most ecologically significant infrastructure efforts: the Coastal 29 Fish Passage Project. As the progressive design-builder, and in partnership with the Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), we're replacing 29 outdated and undersized culverts along US 101 and SR 109 that impede fish passage with fish-passable crossings. These improvements help restore salmon and other fish habitat, protect vital ecosystems and cultural resources and uphold WSDOT's commitments to provide resilient infrastructure across some of the region's most rugged and remote terrain. The 29 crossings are grouped into five construction bundles based on geographical location and site conditions. The first three bundles are now complete, totaling 16 fish passable structures. This year, we are working at nine crossing sites with the goal of completing construction on seven of those sites. We are constructing a mix of buried structures consisting of precast box culverts and precast single-span bridges. We are maintaining traffic flow through the project sites by constructing a temporary shoofly MOT bypass around the work area or by utilizing phased construction. This project is part of a larger effort between Kiewit and WSDOT to remove more than 75 fish barriers across the state, consisting of six alternative delivery method projects.

Quelle meilleure façon de comprendre notre travail que d'en faire directement l'expérience? Notre programme d'opérateurs désignés (DOP) pour l'Est du Canada a récemment organisé deux « rodéos de l’équipement », donnant aux nouveaux employés l'occasion de chausser les bottes de nos équipes d’opérateurs qualifiés de projet. Guidés par des opérateurs expérimentés, les participants se sont mis aux commandes d’excavatrice, de chargeuses, de camions articulés, de chargeuses compactes (skid steer) et de bouteurs. Ils ont également pris part à des inspections visuelles, ont appris les interactions humain-machine, ont vu de leurs propres yeux les défis posés par les angles morts et les opérations quotidiennes menées avec de l'équipement. Chaque participant est reparti avec un certificat de participation et le droit de se vanter d'avoir utilisé certains des équipements lourds qui font avancer nos projets.

Welcome to the newest building on our Lenexa campus! This six-story, 183,000-square-foot facility is more than just an office – it’s a hub for innovation, collaboration and a growing home base for our engineering teams. From modern workspaces and a state-of-the-art auditorium to a café and coffee bar, every detail was designed with our people in mind. The building also features the largest Kiewit logo in the company – now lighting up the skyline as the fourth Kiewit addition to the City Center District. We’re proud to keep growing in Lenexa and are excited for what’s ahead as this space welcomes more employees, clients and projects.
Kiewit employees recently celebrated the completion of their second international bridge project in Rwanda this year — the Uwabarashi Build. This 94-meter suspension bridge now provides safe, year-round access to more than 2,600 residents across the Mbirurume River. Over two weeks, employees from five different parts of Kiewit volunteered their time to build abutments, install cables, swings, decking and other components. Since 2014, Kiewit has supported 19 bridge builds in Rwanda, impacting 60,000 community members and engaging 170 Kiewit volunteers. All the bridge materials and major team expenses were donated by both Kiewit and nonprofit partners. Thank you and congratulations to everyone who’s helped make this decade-long effort a success!
The largest single-piece topside ever built at Kiewit Offshore Services in Ingleside, Texas, is now en route to Newfoundland. Since the project began in 2017, our team has completed the fabrication, construction, integration, loadout and seafastening of the topside. Most importantly, the project was executed with an outstanding safety record, a testament to the team’s commitment to safety throughout every phase of work. The project was managed and made possible by the leadership and dedication of an excellent team: Christopher Alonso, Abel Villarreal, Stewart Vaughan, Brooke Bielamowicz, Seumas St. George, Cosmin Dulea, Christopher Tyler, William Bannantine and the entire Kiewit Offshore Services family. Their hard work and contributions over the last eight years helped bring this project to life. The oil rig is now embarking on a 3,400-mile journey, where it will soon be connected to its concrete base structure, paving the way for first oil in 2026.
Baseball fans everywhere know Omaha this time of year — and it’s amazing to be part of a company behind the stadium where it all happens. Charles Schwab Field Omaha is more than just a ballpark — it represents a 75-year legacy of College World Series games played exclusively at Kiewit-built venues, starting with Rosenblatt.
