The project involved construction of a 18.5 km long dedicated bus route with some segments totaling 12.5 km being constructed above grade. Cast-in-situ box girder section were used in the construction of the 12.5 km long above grade segment.
About 70% of post-tensioning related work and supplies other than strands for this project were delivered by Stronghold.
