Granite’s work will enhance the safety and mobility of motorists by constructing the all-new Indianola Interchange on U.S. Highway 101, effectively eliminating a T-intersection along the primary route between Arcata and Eureka. The project will include a column-stabilized embankment with over 5,000 columns averaging 65 feet deep, 42,000 cubic-yards of cement-treated load transfer platform, and 24,000 cubic yards of lightweight foam fill to support the new roadway.

“This project includes several unique construction features to address challenging subsurface conditions and completion will result in safer passage along this stretch of highway,” said Granite VP of Regional Operations, Brent Fogg. “The Indianola Interchange project is in direct alignment with our strategic plan for geographic growth and adds to our presence in the Humboldt County market, strengthening our relationship with Caltrans District 1.”

The project will begin in the Spring of 2023 and is expected to be completed in 2025.
