When Hurricane Helene unleashed its fury in late September 2024 many communities in Florida, Georgia, Tennessee and Virginia were shredded under the onslaught of flooding and mudslides. In the wake of the storm’s 140 mph winds, people needed food, water and shelter. The storm caused more than $75 billion in damage. As the rains subsided, residents in those areas asked, “How can I resume my life?” In many places, like southwestern Virginia, the answer began with reliable transportation connections. Route 58 in Washington County is one of those important connections. The area is close to the Tri-Cities and is a vital link for Damascus, Va., and Washington County residents. The road winds through the stunning scenery of the Jefferson National Forest and is home to spectacular trout fishing, biking and hiking. Route 58 did not look so inviting after the hurricanes and rain had gouged away huge swaths of dirt and rock. Most of Route 58 looked more like the county’s famous hiking trails rather than a highway. see HURRICANE page 48

VDOT turned to W-L Construction & Paving to work under a force account to reconstruct the road.

Opinions Differ On Road Diets for Traffic Calming Efforts Among Transportation Agencies The federal department of transportation has reversed course on the longtime safety design concept of reduced lane capacity, or “road diets.” Not only are some states also wanting to end lane reductions, but cities in Texas, California and Washington have worked toward a similar outcome. Road diet advocates see the movement as forfeiting a critical tool for slowing down drivers. This spring, when the application window for the federal Safe Streets and Roads for All program opened, it was considered by many to be tight. By Lucy Perry

The goal of road diets is to make more room for people outside of automobiles and to encourage drivers to slow down.

Interstate 26 Projects Moving Forward in Asheville, N.C. NCDOT opens new I-26 lanes in Buncombe County amid $531 million widening project. Just a few days after new permanent lanes opened along Interstate 26 the south side of Asheville, N.C., additional lanes became operational the morning of April 15, 2025, the state Department of Transportation (NCDOT) announced. After an overnight closure to remove traffic control devices, the NCDOT contractor opened traffic to three lanes from Long Shoals Road southeast to Glenn Bridge Road in South Asheville. From there, the roadway opened to another four lanes of travel and connected with more lanes beyond Airport Road, the news release said. Fluor-United Joint Venture is the contractor for the Asheville-Buncombe County section of the I-26 project. NCDOT estimated the project to cost $531 million — $271 million for the Henderson County portion and $263 million for the Buncombe County portion. “This has been a long time coming and we’re certainly happy to open this stretch of interstate for local drivers and those passing through,” Luke Middleton, NCDOT resident engineer, said in the agency’s announcement.

half of I-26 widening in Buncombe County, from Long Shores Road to Brevard Road. The northern stretch includes the creation of a new interchange at Exit 35, the Asheville Citizen-Times reported. Those plans were added after the project started. Building the new exit provides drivers with another route to Brevard Road by the North Carolina Arboretum. The Exit 35 interchange has an estimated late-2026 completion date, according to NCDOT. Crews still must complete new westbound lanes in the northern portion of the project, finalize the new Blue Ridge Parkway bridge and remove the old structure. Agency officials anticipate completing those tasks by late 2026. “Drivers should certainly notice a big difference with the new lanes,” Middleton said. “And they should also see that we’re continuing to work and build a newer and better interstate.” I-26 Connector Designs Include Bridge Over Patton Avenue Plans unveiled earlier in the year for the monumental I-26 connector project in Asheville have revived a contentious element thought to have been nixed 15 years before, according to advocates: an interstate bridge that would take the freeway over Patton Avenue on the west side of the French Broad River, rather than under. see NCDOT page 94

Franna Selects Sound Heavy Machinery as Carolinas Dealer Sound Heavy Machinery (SHM) has been named the official Franna Crane dealer for North and South Carolina. The Wilmington-based dealership will represent Franna in selling, marketing, servicing and offering parts for the five current “pick and carry” cranes offered in the United States. As a Terex brand, Franna “pick and carry” cranes live up to their name with the strength and easy operation to pick up heavy loads and the steering flexibility to move in tight spaces, according to the company. Franna’s cranes deliver high road speeds to get them to the job site quickly and because the articulated frame needs no outriggers, contractors can get set up and begin working almost immediately. Sound Heavy Machinery owner, Mark Bobo explains the value of the partnership for both companies. “Franna Cranes has over 40 years of experience in the crane segments abroad,” said Bobo. “We are pleased that they selected Sound Heavy Machinery to strengthen their distribution in the Carolinas. It is a natural fit considering Franna is a Terex brand, and we are already an authorized Terex rough-terrain crane dealership. Their pick and carry cranes are a great addition to our crane portfolio of products.” Besides general construction and mining

jobs, Franna serves a wide variety of markets including military operations, shipbuilding, hydro and nuclear power plants. SHM was founded in 2010 by Bobo and has shown steady growth since then. SHM offers other equipment including Anaconda, AUSA, Kobelco, ASV, Lamtrac attachment carriers, Terex rough-terrain cranes and Faresin telehandlers. Besides renting equipment and selling new and used parts, SHM has a vibrant service department that services all makes and models of equipment for both the field and its service shop. Franna Cranes are part of the materials processing segment at Terex Corporation, a global manufacturer of aerial work platforms and materials processing machinery. Terex Corporation designs, builds and supports products used in construction, maintenance, manufacturing, energy, minerals and materials management applications from its facilities spread all over the world in North and South America, Europe, Australia and Asia. The United States rough-terrain product line consists of six models ranging from 40ton maximum lifting capacity with a main boom length of 99 ft. to 100-ton maximum lifting capacity with a fully hydraulic boom stretching 154 ft. in length.

“Sound Heavy Machinery is a wellknown dealer in the Carolinas and midAtlantic regions who have made great strides in growing its customer base as we know well from our current partnership with Terex rough-terrain cranes,” said Ryan Perkins, regional manager of Terex. “We are

extremely excited about extending our crane portfolio with SHM because it is a full-service dealership with a long history of providing quality products and services that are backed by experienced professionals.” For more information, visit www.SoundHM.com 

Raleigh’s Wilson-Finley Co. Celebrates 70 Years in Business

Wilson-Finley Co.’s Raleigh location at 5901 Chapel Hill Road can accommodate approximately eight mediumsized machines at a time.

Since 1955, Raleigh, N.C.-based Wilson-Finley Co. has been providing contractors and farmers with tough, well-engineered heavy equipment parts to keep their projects rolling along.

By Eric Olson CEG CONTRIBUTING EDITOR

Since 1955, Raleigh, N.C.-based Wilson-Finley Co. has been providing contractors and farmers with tough, wellengineered heavy equipment parts to keep their projects rolling along. In doing so, the company has established a well-earned reputation among its customers, due not only to its ability to deliver parts and service in a timely manner, but also because of its commitment to fair and friendly attention. That respect from its customers has always been a direct result of the neighborly culture within Wilson-Finley, a cornerstone of the business since George Wilson founded it 70 years ago. Down through the decades, Wilson-Finley has been a completely family-run business with Doug Wilson, George’s son, later serving as president alongside his son-in-law, Jay Davis, who is currently the company vice president. Additionally, Doug’s daughter Charlotte works with the company. Although her role is primarily in accounting and payroll, she noted she is involved in several other areas of Wilson-Finley, as well. The couple’s two sons, Weston and Austin, represent the fourth generation and have already begun their careers at the company their great-grandfather built. Today, Wilson-Finley operates four full-service sales and service locations in Raleigh, Charlotte, Richmond, Va., and Atlanta, as well as a parts distribution warehouse in Greensboro, N.C. From those locations, the company serves customers both locally and regionally with reliable shipping, in addition to in-house repair and service. In each city and region that it serves, Wilson-Finley’s parts departments also are well-known for the amount and variety of components they stock, whether for a dozer, excavator, front-end loader or other piece of heavy machinery. In addition, every part is manufactured to the highest quality and offered at the lowest possible price. Over the past 30 years, Wilson-Finley’s inventory has evolved and expanded to cater to its customers’ needs. The most significant changes have included keeping up with new

and I think our staff has done an exceptional job documenting that type of information over the past 50-60 years.” In addition, he said that Wilson-Finley offers an enormous inventory of ground engaging tools (GETs), heavy equipment attachments that contact the ground to cut, move and grade during construction. With one of the most diverse GET stockpiles in the industry, Wilson-Finley tailors its selection of bucket teeth, cutting edges and blade stock to reflect local market demands.

models and products introduced to the construction industry. Chief among them was the addition of undercarriage parts, including a wide selection of high-quality EARTHQUEST rubber tracks for most types of mini-excavators and compact track loaders. “The undercarriage components themselves have also changed during my time here,” said Jay Davis. “The interchangeability between the OEM and aftermarket undercarriage parts aren’t always a good marriage. Therefore, you must have what I call the ‘institutional knowledge’ to understand that this part is going to work perfectly with that part,

George Wilson, A.E. Finley Merge Respective Talents After having been trained as a certified welder while in the U.S. Navy, George Wilson first worked as a civilian for C.C. Mangum Co., a Raleigh-based highway contracting and asphalt production firm. “George handled welding operations, reconditioned undercarriages and managed various construction equipment repairs,” Davis said. “As that evolved, he saw a growing need for undercarriage reconstruction, which led him to borrow $1,500 from his sister to start Wilson Welding. “The same was true with the track rollers, idlers and sprockets,” added Davis. “Drag lines were big business back then, so they rebuilt their tumblers on the track pads and rebuilt the drag-line buckets, too.” Later, Wilson learned about an opportunity to import aftermarket undercarriage parts to North America, which led him to form Wilson-Finley Co. with the help of A.E. Finley, whose own outfit, North Carolina Equipment, was one of the East Coast’s most successful operations. That association made Wilson-Finley a complementary firm to Finley’s more established company by filling a critical need for International Harvester, Case and AllisChalmers parts for the aftermarket end of the business as they were not readily available from the OEMs at the time. When Doug Wilson succeeded his father as president of Wilson-Finley in the early 1980s, John Deere, Cat, International Harvester and Komatsu made up the core group of its available parts. see PARTS page 92

National Equipment Dealers Breaks ARTBA: Fatalities, Ground On New Savannah Branch Injuries in Highway,

ational Equipment Dealers (NED) broke ground April 25, 2025, on a new location in the Savannah, Ga. market. The facility, which should be open for business in early 2026, is designed to replace the current and much smaller Savannah-Richmond Hill NED facility. Zack Kavanaugh, NED’s CEO, was on hand at the work site in the Savannah suburb of Bloomingdale along with other company personnel, officials from the city of Bloomingdale, and representatives from Hyundai Construction Equipment, Bell Trucks America and Sakai, three of the dealership’s top manufacturers. Prior to the actual groundbreaking, Kavanaugh took time to talk about NED and how it does business, why it chose Bloomingdale for its latest branch, and recognize those folks who are helping to make the new dealership a reality. NED’s parent company is J.J. Taylor Companies of Jupiter, Fla., a third-generation family-owned business that

At the groundbreaking are Dan Rensehausen (L) of NED and Bill Coggins of BCH Construction in Savannah, Ga., the contractor who is building the vertical structure.

employs approximately 1,300 employees across several different operating companies, of which approximately 450 work for the equipment dealer, he said. NED operates 20 dealerships in North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Texas. In addition to NED, J.J. Taylor Companies operates a large beer wholesaling business in Florida. “We pride ourselves and we run our business based on doing four things,” Kavanaugh said. “The first is we want to take really good care of our employees, and we think we do a pretty good job of it. The second is we want to give our customers great care as well, which is why we’re building this facility today. The guys who run our current SavannahRichmond Hill branch today have done an incredible job building this business for us and we are going to construct a new facility that will allow them to service our customers better and grow it for years to come.”

Bridge Sector Decline ARTBA logo

The highway and bridge sector is making measured progress in reducing worker deaths and injuries compared with the broader construction industry, according to an analysis of U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics data released April 23, 2025, to coincide with National Work Zone Awareness Week (NWZAW). The analysis, conducted by the American Road & Transportation Builders Association (ARTBA), reveals that between 2011 and 2023 (the most recent years available), see NED page 91 fatal injuries in the highway, street and bridge (HSB) sector declined 15 percent, while fatal injuries for the rest of the construction sector jumped 41 percent. Non-fatal injuries and illness for the HSB sector also declined, with the number of cases per 1,000 workers decreasing 46 percent. “These numbers demonstrate that public and private sector efforts to help improve jobsite safety through training and public awareness are having a positive impact,” said Brad Sant, ARTBA senior vice president of safety and education. While the number of deaths among workers is still unacceptably high — 88 in 2023 alone — Sant believes the downward trend reflects the collaborative spirit between public agencies, industry organizations and transportation design and construction firms to address safety risks and hazards. As examples, Sant cited the many organizations working together to promote NWZAW, along with resources provided via the National Work Zone Safety Information Zack Kavanaugh (L), CEO of NED, and Jesse Beasley, Clearinghouse, which offers free online training and public president of NED, stand in front of a rendering of the awareness tools. new location. The Clearinghouse, a three-decade partnership between ARTBA and the Federal Highway Administration, is the world’s largest online information source on roadway construction zone safety issues. In 2024 alone, the Clearinghouse provided free safety courses to 3,000 workers and distributed more than 8,000 safety-related documents to key stakeholders. “To continue reducing worker fatalities and injuries, we need to keep doing what we are doing — and do more of it,” Sant said. The theme of this year’s NWZAW, which kicked off in Raleigh, N.C., the week of April 21, 2025, “Respect the zone so we all go home.” ARTBA is a co-sponsor of the event hosted by the North Carolina Department of Transportation. 

Wirtgen Presents New Large W 250 XF Milling Machine

Wirtgen photo

The mill assist machine control system regulates the power output of the two engines of the Wirtgen large milling machine according to demand to ensure the most efficient use of the machine.

With the new W 250 XF, Wirtgen presents a machine with milling performance and low specific emissions. It is available as of now in the United States, Australia, Europe, Japan and Taiwan. Dual-Engine Drive System Controlled By Mill Assist for Maximum Performance The engine power output of the new large milling machine has been increased by more than 20 percent compared with its predecessor. The active dual power dual-engine drive makes the milling machine even more powerful and versatile in use. The two 18-L John Deere engines can deliver a combined peak power output of 900 kW. Wirtgen and John Deere worked in close collaboration on the fine tuning of the torque characteristic of the engines to meet the specific needs of the cold milling process. Both diesel engines already deliver high torque at low engine speeds. The improved torque characteristic guarantees lower fuel consumption and fast, productive work, even at the machine’s maximum milling depth, according to Wirtgen. The integrated mill assist machine control system regulates the power output of the two engines according to demand to ensure the most efficient use of the machine, according to Wirtgen. In automatic mode, it always ensures the most

favorable working balance between performance and costs. It also allows the selection of three different working strategies that optimize the process with regard to costs, performance or quality. The W 250 XF demonstrates its full potential especially in “performance-optimized” mode. There is a choice of three different engine power combination modes that can be selected to meet the requirements of specific milling tasks. For example, only one engine is used when removing concrete or brittle materials. When the task demands the removal of a surface layer and high surface quality, the second engine is cut in and operates in the part load range. In combination mode no. 3, both engines operate synchronously and deliver the maximum combined power output of 900 kW. As both engines are generally operated within the low speed range, their fuel consumption is correspondingly low. The large milling machine impresses with high daily output rates in applications on freeways, federal highways, airports and other major construction projects. Large Milling Machine Offers Milling Widths Up to 3.8 m Flexibility is one of the most critical requirements in dayto-day operations on construction sites. The milling drum of the W 250 XF can be exchanged for a multiple cutting system

(MCS) milling drum within minutes. The ability to rapidly change to application-specific milling drums with different tool spacings considerably increases machine productivity, according to Wirtgen. At the same time, the choice of the ideal drum for a specific application also reduces wear-related costs. Wirtgen offers a range of milling drums for the W 250 XF that meet the requirements of any milling application. Exchanging the milling drum assembly enables the realization of milling widths from 2.2 m to 3.8 m. With the aid of the quick-change system, the entire milling drum assembly can be changed in less than one hour, according to Wirtgen. Digital Solutions · Mill Assist, WPT Milling In addition to machine control with mill assist, the automated documentation of milling tasks with Wirtgen Group performance tracker milling, or WPT milling for short, also plays a major role. Maximum efficiency is achieved by the combination of both of these digital solutions, according to Wirtgen. The operator is kept constantly informed about the current machine and job parameters and when the work has been completed, the data is transmitted to the machine owner, who can then use them for billing. see WIRTGEN page 44

as they become available. Their wiring design has been optimized for commonality, cost-effectiveness and ease of service, according to Volvo. To maximize uptime, Volvo doubled the diesel particulate filter (DPF) replacement intervals on these machines from 3,000 to 6,000 hours. LED work lights and beacons replace halogen lights and telematics systems now

include GSM/GPS and SATCOM antennas for optimized machine connectivity. Operators will appreciate several humanmachine interface (HMI) upgrades, including new software, advanced keypads, a USB charging port and a 5-in. full-color LCD display — the same display available on the Volvo compact double drum compactor and excavator models. Additional HMI improvements include auto idle and auto engine

Electric Model Will Reduce Emissions On Small Jobs The 1.5-ton DD15 Electric asphalt compactor is a double drum machine with features similar to the 2.5-ton DD25 Electric.

Some Experts Perceive Road Diets as Causing More Opportunity for Conflict TRAFFIC from page 1

Criteria for the DOT’s $1 billion grant program read that less consideration would be given to safety projects that reduce lane capacity for vehicles. According to Streetsblog, in the past, the funds have gone to a mix of planning grants and hard infrastructure projects “aimed at saving lives.” Historically, those projects include bike lanes, sidewalk expansions and road diets. But the new grant criteria read that projects including infrastructure reducing lane capacity for vehicles would be viewed less favorably by the department. Traffic reduction advocates fear the agency will drop road diets from its most critical safety program. In doing so, say advocates, the fed will forfeit one of its most important tools to save lives in and out of automobiles. “Excess road capacity leads to excess speed,” Chris Forinash of design firm Nelson\Nygaard, told Streetsblog. He believes the much-needed modernization of many roads must “include how we allocate our public right of way for maximum public benefit.” Others are concerned that safety might take a backseat to maintaining space for cars no matter how busy the road. But road diet opponents believe traffic calming methods only serve to bog drivers down and can threaten the effectiveness of emergency vehicles. Explaining Road Diets For many years, the DOT has recognized road diets or road rebalancing as a way to save lives. With the design concept, corridors are reconfigured to make more room for bike lanes, sidewalks, bus lanes, train lines or other infrastructure. The goal is to make more room for people outside cars

and to encourage motorists beside them to slow down, said Streetsblog. Road diets encourage people to leave their cars at home and streamline turning movements for drivers that frequently cause back-ups. Streetsblog said studies show the concept can actually decrease congestion often without adding extra traffic to adjacent side streets. “Studies show that converting a four-lane road to three lanes can cut crashes as much as 47 percent,” said the blog. Simply narrowing existing lanes from a highway-style width of 12 ft. to a neighborhood-appropriate 9 ft. can cut crashes significantly, said Streetsblog. These approaches can create room for other modes, linear parks, outdoor dining and retail, it said. Road diets that reclaim a lot of lanes like highways-toboulevards conversions, even housing and businesses result. Why Some Favor Traffic Calming Orange County, Fla., rationalized the road diets by explaining that they are an effort to keep up with shifts in modes of transportation. The county’s busiest thoroughfares were developed back when cars ruled the road, the agency said. “But in recent years, people have changed how they get around. Mass transit, bicycles, scooters and other micromobility devices have become more popular.” As a result, more people travel along these busy roads rather than in the middle of them, said the county. “In order to keep up with these shifts, Orange County Public Works is retrofitting certain roads to accommodate new methods of transportation.” see TRAFFIC page 54

Hurricane Project Set to Complete Five Months Early HURRICANE from page 1

The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) team began to assess the situation and estimated it might take as much as $47 million to repair the road. Fixing the road was a necessity for locals who were taking a one-hour detour in some cases. Locals could find these trips essential just to get groceries. VDOT turned to W-L Construction & Paving to work under a force account to reconstruct the road. VDOT had worked before with W-L Construction on other projects. WL Construction is led by Chris Blevins, senior vice president, and Ryan Overbay, general manager. The project was designed to minimize impact to the forest and Whitetop Laurel Creek while preserving access for future repairs to the Virginia Creeper Trail and maintaining continued access to trout fishing. Big Rocks, Big Machines, Big Ideas The team was given the project in October 2024 and plunged into the work even when temperatures registered single digits. W-L and VDOT’s construction team, including help from VDOT Bristol Assistant Environmental Manager Dennis Sanders, used a strategy of big rocks, big machines and big ideas. Given one year to complete the work, the team is set to finish five months early at a price tag of slightly less than $10 million. “The first order of business for the contractor was to clear

the trees off the road,” said Sanders of VDOT. “W-L Construction needed big equipment just for that job, including construction-grade shears. Some of the trees were 48 inches around and needed to be cleared before workers could get access to the road.” W-L decided to take the unusual step to “armor” the river by placing hundreds of huge boulders, 4-5 tons each, at the edge of the water. These rocks reinforced the slope and protected the swift-moving creek from eating away at the banks. The construction workers will place 33.5 tons of stone and 7.3 tons of base, intermediate and surface asphalt to construct the road. The roadway also was armored with Class III rip rap stone to redirect stream flow and protect the roadway from future flooding. “The boulders we used were too big to fit into the bucket of the excavator, so we had to use a large Pemberton material grappler to grab the rocks and fit them into place,” said Blevins. “We chose the boulders carefully so they would interlock and securely anchor the slope and provide an excellent base for the road.” The construction team tried using rock nearby for the job, but the stone crumbled when grasped by the grappler, meaning they were not strong enough to serve as the foundation for the road. The big idea-big machines concept faced another challenge: the workspace was so narrow that the trucks had no place to park or even turn around.

After the hurricane, Route 58 looked more like a hiking trail than a road.

see HURRICANE page 56

A pickup truck perched at the new roadbed shows the effort required to build up the road and make it ready for paving.

Seen here is cut 10, 11 and 12 and earthwork operations for Route 58.

Early efforts on the project required workers to squeeze equipment into tight spaces.

USDOT Changes Its Course On Road Diet Infrastructure Projects as Only Option TRAFFIC from page 46

At the same time, the county hopes to protect a growing number of pedestrians by using a road diet strategy. The county believes the benefits include: • reduction of rear-end and left-turn crashes due to the dedicated left-turn lane; • reduced right-angle crashes as side street motorists cross three versus four travel lanes; • fewer lanes for pedestrians to cross; • opportunity to install pedestrian refuge islands, bicycle lanes, on-street parking or transit stops; • traffic calming and more consistent speeds; and • creation of a “complete streets” environment that better accommodates the needs of all road users. In explaining its preference for road diets where they make sense, the city of Raleigh, N.C., liked that the move allowed for additional bike lanes. It also resulted in the creation of a pedestrian refuge island “allowing safer connectivity to transit and the greenway trail along the street,” said the city. “Adding these components provide safety measures for both bicyclists and pedestrians.” The city of Kansas City, Mo., saw money savings when it put one busy roadway on a road diet and installed a gas line. The road was reduced from two lanes to one in either direction. A shared turn lane, pedestrian crossings and onstreet parking spaces also were added. In an Associated Press article, city planners said road diets are almost automatic whenever a street is up for repaving. Bobby Evans, an urban planner of the Mid-America Regional Council, terms the strategy “a smashing success.” He believes its’s one of the most effective tools at reducing speed, crashes and injuries. “In the architectural world you’d call it environmental determinism,” Evans said. “You want to make it so they don’t feel comfortable going too fast. You’re really not slowing them down. You’re bringing them back to the speed limit.” Philadelphia, Pa., saw a 19 percent drop in injury crashes. Portland, Ore., had a 70 percent decline in vehicles traveling at least 10 mph over the speed limit. The AP reports the average speed in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., fell by 5 mph on some roads within months. Leah Shahum of street safety advocacy non-profit Vision Zero Network said road diets are inexpensive and supported by years of research. Concept Flaws Jay Beeber, NMA policy executive director of the National Motorists Association, would beg to differ. Beeber believes most road diets represent “an ill-advised effort to force vehicles off the road.” He said the number of vehicles may decline on dieted roads, but then surrounding roads have to absorb the traffic. “Those cars have to go somewhere,” he said. “Cars are like water. They seek their own level.” The fed cited concerns about delivery and emergency vehicles among its reversal of policy on road diets. Research done in Iowa found that there was no level of congestion slowing down EMS or fire trucks where road diets were implemented.

But skepticism regarding traffic calming measures such as road diets are not new among major cities, according to the AP story. After years planning to repurpose pavement, removing vehicles lanes and making way for bikes and pedestrians, San Antonio, Texas, reclaimed the road. During the pandemic, Culver City, Calif., implemented a road diet to prioritize walking, biking and transit. But, AP reported, when cars returned and traffic backed up for miles, the city reversed the plan. Some residents sued in Vancouver, Wash., saying the city should have put its road diets up for a public vote. “I’ve seen people passing in the shoulder or the bike lane,” said Justin Wood, one of the opponents. “It creates more opportunity for conflict.” Even traffic designers, including Evans in Kansas City, have had to admit that road diets can’t stop all reckless drivers. “If you are bound and determined to go 12 miles over the speed limit on a three-lane road, you’re going to have to engage in some dangerous driving,” said Evans. The USDOT said forcing travelers into more constrained spaces “can lead to crashes, erratic maneuvers.” The agency told the AP, it also can result in “a false sense of security that puts everyone at risk.” The update reflects the department’s concerns about the safety hazards associated with congestion, said the agency. In fact, the NMA has long believed that traffic calming measures such as road diets only serve to obstruct traffic flow. In a 2020 post on the topic, Sheila Dunn, communications director, said the real solution is to upgrade and improve traffic handling capabilities. “This means implementing physical improvements, as well as raising speed limits and synchronizing traffic controls to accommodate actual vehicle speeds.” Dunn said if main streets provide convenient access, motorists will use them instead of alternate routes through residential neighborhoods. “Motorists deserve roads that not only work, but can also be put to work,” she said. “That means allowing people the freedom to travel to the destination of their choice when they want with the least amount of interference.” NMA considers that freedom a fundamental principle of the American way of life. “It also means keeping roads open for the movement of goods and services that is essential for society as a whole,” said Dunn. Programs that encourage traffic calming and road diets are designed to severely limit motorized traffic in city centers. These design concepts in fact actually wind up diminishing driver mobility, said Dunn. Texas wants to bar cities from narrowing roadways to create wider sidewalks or protected lanes for cyclists and buses. The Houston Chronicle reported this spring that the bill is meant to stop the implementation of vehicle bans, street closures or congestion pricing. When the bill was introduced, the goal was to prohibit any city from imposing a fine on any form of transportation.  CEG

HURRICANE from page 48

“In some cases, we had trucks drop off a piece of equipment, then the driver had to back up for about a half mile just to get out of the workspace,” said Blevins. In some areas, the team was working between a rockfaced slope and the river on the opposite side. The work team said it often felt like they were trying to build a road inside of a narrow hallway. Tight Spaces Much of the muscle came from the 48-ton Volvo excavator. The operator used the boom to place the rocks strategically, helped by a spotter near the water’s edge. “I admit that I slept better after we placed the big rocks,” said VDOT’s Sanders. “So many bad things can happen with rocks that heavy. But none of our workmen got hurt in the process.” “Some of the rocks weighed almost as much as the trucks carrying them,” Blevins said. “In other places, the storm had washed away so much of the road that the area slanted downward. Workers used excavators to place rock, building a wall to secure the new road.”  CEG (All photos courtesy of Virginia Department of Transportation.

NPK Leads Way With High-Performance Attachments As NPK Construction Equipment celebrates 40 years of innovation and support in the construction and demolition industries, its product lineup continues to deliver high performance, reliability and jobsite versatility. From hydraulic hammers to concrete crushers, NPK’s attachments are built to perform and built to last, according to the company. Hydraulic Hammers The NPK hammer design has evolved over the past 40 years as a reliable hydraulic breaker. Its sleeved design utilizes high-efficiency gas-fired piston and anti-blank fire technology to ensure longer component life and reduced maintenance, making it a go-to tool for primary rock and concrete demolition, according to the company. Compactors The NPK compactor family has been a highly productive and low cost of ownership tool for 40 years. They are equipped with internal hose routing and an oil-bath lubrication system, an industry-exclusive steel logic valve that manages flow, pressure, anti-cavitation and anti-reverse functionality. The NPK compactor ensures peak uptime and safety when doing trench, slope and site compaction as well as driving applications, according to NPK. Sheet Pile Drivers The NPK sheeting driver is based on the compactor design. It is equipped with an under mount hydraulic grab jaw for grasping the material to be driven. Additionally, 180degree non-power rotation is standard, allowing for optimal indexing of material that will be driven. It is a powerhouse for driving or extracting sheeting, beams and posts in demanding applications, according to NPK. Material Processors The NPK material processor incorporates interchangeable jaws that allow the user to change from shearing of steel to crunching and cracking of concrete. The exclusive booster allows for a cycle time of under five seconds, while using less than 4,000 psi of pressure from the host carrier, resulting in a favorable power-to-weight ratio. All are equipped with 360-degree hydraulic rotation. Demolition Shears The compact line of NPK demolition shears caters to the growing population of mid- to mini-excavators. These compact but powerful tools have unrivaled cutting forces and full 360-degree rotation with three styles of rotation offered: manual bump style, hydraulic power rotation and “electrohydraulic” rotation. These tools allow for precise demolition and material processing when a large shear is not applicable. Demolition Grabs The versatile NPK family of demolition grabs has been around for more than 20 years. While small units for use on mini-excavators allow for precise control when doing demolition and material loading/handling on a small scale, the larger units feature a dual rotation motor setup allowing for additional rotation torque and load holding capabilities to tackle recycling, loading and select demolition tasks. All units come equipped with an internal pilot load check built into the cylinder to ensure safe use in all applications, according to NPK.

NPK Construction Equipment is celebrating its 40th anniversary 1985-2025. The attachments featured are the GHD-10 hydraulic hammer (L) and the U31JA concrete crusher.

U Series- Primary/Secondary Concrete Crushers The NPK U series crushers can be configured in a nonrotating configuration, ideal for use in recycling/secondary applications. The NPK U series also can be configured with 360-degree hydraulic rotation for primary and secondary crushing. All NPK concrete crushers are supported by NPK’s hydraulic booster for productivity. For ease of maintenance, the upper and lower jaws are equipped with replaceable tooth plates that allow for quick change in the field when the teeth wear beyond a serviceable limit; and they also are equipped with rebar cutters in the throat that can be flipped four times to provide long service life. X Series-Primary Concrete Crushers The X series, NPK’s compact line of concrete crushers, is sized for smaller carriers making them well suited for primary demolition in tight spaces or where a large carrier cannot be used. They are ideal for internal and select demolition tasks, according to NPK. The X series crushers have full 360-degree rotation with three styles of rotation offered: manual bump style, hydraulic

power rotation and “electro-hydraulic” rotation. As with all NPK concrete crushers, the X series utilize NPK’s exclusive hydraulic booster for unmatched cycle times, power and productivity, according to NPK. The X series crushers also are equipped with bolt-on replaceable rebar cutters in the throat and replaceable tooth plates at the jaw tips for ease of maintenance. Primary Crusher Pulverizer The recently introduced NPK V250R crusher boasts fast cycle times and a favorable power-to-weight ratio for maximum crushing force due to NPK’s exclusive hydraulic booster. The V250R is equipped with 360-degree hydraulic rotation for efficient positioning and superior attack angles. Like all the other NPK crusher/crunchers, bolt-on tooth plates and integrated rebar cutters are standard to reduce downtime. These units are ideally suited for primary demolition and high reach applications. NPK Construction Equipment is committed to quality and performance in the industry, supported by United Statesbased manufacturing, its service team, dealer network and a legacy of innovation.

ed names to deliver performance. For the construction and aggregate markets, our Ultralok tooth system is a top choice to improve machine productivity, extend service life and improve site safety with less maintenance. The system features a unique integrated lock that simplifies point replacement with an off-the-shelf pry tool — replacing points has never been so easy. Enhanced profiles with more usable wear metal can deliver up to 55 percent longer wear life than competitive teeth. The increased system life and faster point replacement increases machine availability, improves production levels and lowers maintenance requirements, according to ESCO. The result is a better operating cost position with increased profits, greater success obtaining profitable job bids and more uptime to help complete jobs on time. A full range of adapters are available with the Ultralok system: including a selection of weld-on adapter styles; bolt-on adapters for all popular OEM machine bolt patterns; and a hot slag offering that includes an optional bolt-in lock or the ultra-secure. 

Furukawa Rock Drill USA Introduces Fx800 Qtv Large-Series Breaker Furukawa Rock Drill (FRD) USA, a manufacturer of blast hole drills, hydraulic breakers and various other attachments for skid steers, mini-excavators, backhoes and excavators, introduced a new large-series breaker with the Fx800 Qtv. It replaces the Fx770 12,000-ft-lb. class breaker, offering numerous advancements, including increased breaking performance and reduced energy loss during operation. Like its predecessor, the Fx800 runs on a broad range of excavators (48.5ton to 83-ton). The Fx800 still requires the same pressure and flow as the Fx770, but re-engineered internal hydraulic routing delivers improved efficiency, improving breaking performance and reducing energy loss during operation, according to the company. Other updates to the Fx800 include

modified thru bolts with a larger thread diameter to increase thru-bolt longevity and improve operating life, a more robust front-head ideal for abrasive applications and an anti-blow feature for increased performance, extending breaker life. Large diameter working steel at 7.48 ft. maximizes rock breaking and a redesigned soundproof cover provides easier maintenance access. “The new Fx800 breaker is a great choice for breaking hard rock, working in quarries and large-scale demolition jobs,” said Ted Crane, FRD USA’s national sales manager of the breaker attachment division. “The Fx770 has always been a dependable, powerful breaker. The Fx800 builds on that foundation with multiple updates and advancements to make it even more powerful and efficient, while also reducing downtime and maintenance.” 

New Caterpillar Tiltrotator Line Helps Deliver Costs Savings The new Cat tiltrotator line helps to deliver cost savings by reducing the number of machines and ground staff at the site. The tilt rotate system allows the attachment to simultaneously rotate 360 degrees and tilt up to 40 degrees, allowing tracked excavators to perform a range of tasks — digging, grading and compacting — with more precise movements without repositioning the machine. Less machine repositioning helps to reduce undercarriage wear and lower costs, according to Caterpillar. “Our fully integrated new TRS12, TRS17, TRS20 and TRS26 models reduce installation time and show up automatically on the machine’s monitor, allowing it to be easily controlled by the joystick,” said Scott Rosengaard, senior product consultant, Caterpillar. “Our tiltrotators can be used with a wide range of attachments like buckets, grapples, compactors and more, allowing for higher machine utilization and improved productivity. Plus, the new standard tilt sensor delivers precise tilt and rotation angles to the grading system.” High-Flow System These new models feature a standard high flow swivel, providing up to 200 l/min flow at 250 bar for use with high-flow work tools.

The new Cat tiltrotator line helps to deliver cost savings by reducing the number of machines and ground staff at the site.

Pairing the tiltrotator with a next generation Cat excavator that has a second hydraulic line boosts hydraulic flow and pressure to 250 l/min at 350 bar. New pressure compensated hydraulic valves manufactured with spools provide

even better control of the hydraulic flow than previous designs, allowing the tiltrotator to maintain stable rotation speed regardless of tilt speed. A quick-connect interface provides fast hydraulic attachment changes. SecureLock uses sensor technology inside

the locking cylinder to verify the tool is correctly connected and securely locked to reduce the risk of swinging or dropping tools, according to Caterpillar. High Efficiency Cat TRS models feature a single grease point connection with the excavator’s autogrease system and the simple-to-use innovative lubrication system is developed to quickly distribute the right amount of grease to the appropriate points. Double-acting tilt cylinders fitted with a load holding valve ensure the load is securely in position, even in the event of the hydraulic system losing pressure. Providing maximum heat distribution, the worm gearbox is filled with oil for optimum lubrication. With the new tiltrotator models, operators can change tools without leaving the cab when equipped with the full hydraulic coupler, enhancing safety, productivity, performance and efficiency. A plastic cover with built-in electrical harness provides easy connection to the hydraulic valves and simplifies servicing. Frame modification on the new series reduces dirt exposure for the grading sensor, which is further protected by a metal cover. For more information, visit cat.com. 

CGA Conference, Expo Highlights Damage Prevention

CGA photo CGA photo

Nearly 100,000 sq.-ft. of exhibit space showcased the latest technology for safely digging.

Common Ground Alliance (CGA) concluded its 2025 Conference & Expo at the Orlando World Center Marriott. With 1,600 damage prevention leaders in attendance, the conference is the largest gathering of its kind in America. CGA celebrated its 25th anniversary this year, returning to Orlando after its successful Conference & Expo in 2023. Conference attendees included senior leaders from 16 key industries including utility companies, oil and gas pipeline operators, construction, equipment manufacturing, state 811 call centers and underground locating technology companies such as Verizon, Honeywell, Rust-Oleum, 3M, Sunshine 811 and others. April also is National Safe Digging Month across the country. More than 190,000 times each year, buried power, water, natural gas, internet and other utility lines are damaged by digging across the country, costing the U.S. $30 billion annually. Nearly 26,000 times each year, buried utilities are damaged in Florida — almost 71 times each day, making Florida the No. 1 state for damage to underground infrastructure. Damage to buried utilities has led to road collapses, water main breaks, service disruptions like 911 outages, injuries and fatalities. Yesterday, the National Transportation Safety Board issued its final report on a Pennsylvania factory explosion that killed seven, in part due to inadequate locating of high-pressure steam and natural gas utility lines; the NTSB recommended nationwide adoption of a key CGA best practice. “As we celebrate this milestone of 25 years of damage prevention insights, our Conference & Expo this year reflected on the past by looking towards the future of solutions, innovations and partnerships to reduce the buried utility damages that risk lives, property and disruption to communities and businesses,” said Sarah K. Magruder Lyle, president and CEO of the Common Ground Alliance and Executive Director of the Damage Prevention Action Center.

Examples include GPS-enabled ground-penetrating radar devices, vacuum excavation equipment that allows digging using compressed air or high-pressure water and cloud-enabled handheld subsurface mapping equipment.

“We thank Orlando for the warm welcome back, and we’re grateful to the attendees and sponsors who are helping us raise awareness of what’s at risk and how to protect the critical buried infrastructure on which all Americans rely.” State leaders participated virtually, with video messages provided by State Senate President Pro Tempore Jason Brodeur and State Representatives Dan Daley, Chip LaMarca and Allison Tant, as well as Central Florida-area lawmakers State Representatives Rita Harris, Johanna Lopéz and Leonard Spencer. Joshua Bowes, Military and Veteran Affairs Director for U.S. Representative Darren Soto attended, learning about veteran hiring efforts from company leaders at Badger, UtiliQuest and other conference sponsors. Advocacy: The Damage Prevention Action Center — the industry’s advocacy arm — met to discuss key state and federal issues impacting damage prevention. This included the

Promoting Innovation in Pipeline Efficiency and Safety (PIPES) act, legislation in congress that would allocate funding for protecting buried infrastructure. The legislation has found bipartisan support, including from U.S. Representative Dan Webster, Chairman of the House Subcommittee on railroads, pipelines and hazardous materials. Speakers, education: Attendees received insights from Acting Administrator Benjamin Kochman of the U.S. Pipelines and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) on the Trump administration’s drive to unleash American energy to safely serve American communities, as well as inspiring remarks on creativity from acclaimed journalist, bestselling author and award-winning tech and media entrepreneur Shane Snow as the keynote speaker. The Conference & Expo hosted more than 50 interactive educational sessions on topics including pipeline safety, the role of AI in damage prevention, excavator education and more. Expo hall: Nearly 100,000 sq.-ft. of exhibit space — the conference’s largest-ever and the equivalent of nearly two football fields — showcased the latest technology for safely digging, locating and installing fiber/broadband, water, gas, power and other underground utility lines. Examples include GPS-enabled ground-penetrating radar devices, vacuum excavation equipment that allows digging using compressed air or high-pressure water and cloud-enabled handheld subsurface mapping equipment. Industry awards: CGA also recognized top leaders in the industry through prestigious industry awards. James Holland, chief operating officer of Kinder Morgan, accepted the president’s award of corporate excellence. Sandra Holmes of Arizona 811 and Scott Brown of Washington Gas were inducted into the CGA hall of fame. This year’s Groundbreaker award honored Jai Kalayil of the Chicago Department of Transportation/Chicago 811. 

The LRT 1090-2.1 will be displayed on site at Celebration of Construction on the National Mall.

The second Celebration of Construction on the National Mall will take place May 14-16, 2025, in Washington, D.C., highlighting the industry’s latest machine innovations, workforce development opportunities and sustainability initiatives. The event will highlight construction equipment, components and exhibits between the Capitol building and the Washington Monument. Liebherr USA Co. will be one of many OEM’s participating in this opportunity to showcase equipment, aiming to educate attendees about the impact of OEMs on the industry. Liebherr’s exhibit will provide attendees with an opportunity to gain firsthand experience with Liebherr’s innovative machinery and solutions, allowing attendees to see the equipment in action and understand its capabilities, benefits and economic impacts.

are deeply committed to supporting local communities and promoting sustainable practices within the construction industry.” Liebherr Innovations Liebherr’s participation in the Celebration of Construction on the National Mall will feature some of the latest advancements in construction technology and attendees will have the opportunity to see teh equipment firsthand. Each of these machines, the LRT 1090-2.1 rough-terrain crane, the 42 M5 XXT truck-mounted concrete pump and the L 546 wheel loader, are used in a wide array of applications and can be found on many construction sites throughout the country, according to Liebherr. The LRT 1090-2.1 rough-terrain crane is designed with safety in mind. It is fitted standard with an outrigger monitor, which automatically detects the support status and includes it in the crane control system. Additional safety features are provided by the VarioBase variable support base enhancing flexibility on site and increasing the crane’s lifting capacity. In addition, the telescopic boom on the rough-terrain crane features time-tested rope pull technology. This telescoping technology enables the boom to be extended quickly to any length using a two-stage hydraulic cylinder with a rope extension mechanism.

The 42 M5 XXT truck-mounted concrete pump offers a five-part multi-fold distributor boom and XXT outrigger supports. The pivoting XXT support provides the pump versatility and flexibility when working on tight or narrow job sites, according to Liebherr. In addition, the pump is equipped with powerbloc, Liebherr’s latest drive unit for concrete pumps that does not require a separate control block. The pump also comes equipped with semi-closed oil circuit HCC which guarantees all drives are supplied with reliable hydraulic power, keeping jobs on time and reducing overall costs, according to Liebherr. The L 546 wheel loader provides performance for the mid-size range. This machine offers new, optimized Z bar linkage, 20 percent more breakout force, as well as faster tilt movement and cycle times providing more power for tough operations. The L 546 also offers fuel efficient performance with Liebherr-power efficiency, a higher engine output and hydrostatic travel drive. With multiple assistance systems optionally available, the L546 is an excellent option for various applications. These innovations enhance productivity and efficiency on construction sites, reducing project timelines and costs, according to Liebherr. For more information, visit liebherr.com/ 

NED’s New Savannah Facility Due to Open Early 2026 NED from page 24

According to Kavanaugh, the new Bloomingdale branch is envisioned as being the first of a series of 12,000-sq.-ft. state-ofthe-art facilities that NED plans to develop. “This is the first branch NED will build from the ground up,” he said. “We’re going to replicate the facility that we will have here in Bloomingdale in a number of other cities in the five states in which we operate.” NED also wants to nurture the partnerships it has cultivated with its equipment manufacturers and help them grow their

market, which, he added, is why it builds new and modern branches. “And the final thing NED wants to accomplish is become a great member of the communities in which we operate,” Kavanaugh said. “We’re proud and excited to be coming to Bloomingdale and we look forward to working with all of you to add more value here.”  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2025 Construction Equipment Guide, except where noted.

Family Business Provides Parts for Contractors, Farmers PARTS from page 18

“Other manufacturers like Kobelco and Case also made undercarriage components that were added to the company’s inventory, many of which other suppliers did not supply to the aftermarket,” Davis said. “So, we partnered with additional vendors that manufactured those parts and started importing them.” Rubber Tracks, Ground Engaging Tools Popular at Wilson-Finley Although Wilson-Finley was founded on working with steel tracks, its business also focuses heavily on rubber tracks for heavy equipment. “That happened about 18 years ago when our supplier at the time was manufacturing some of the small undercarriage parts for the mini-excavators and compact track loaders,” said Davis. “Those parts were available, and we saw it as an emerging market. People had begun contacting us to represent them in selling the rubber tracks and from that, we found a very solid manufacturer and EARTHQUEST Premium Rubber Track was born.” The EARTHQUEST brand of rubber tracks are produced overseas and have been engineered with the help of WilsonFinley, he said, “to provide, on the CTL side, the lowest possible vibration with extra strength in the sides of the rubber tracks so they don’t suffer stress fractures and split when they are going over stumps and curbs.” EARTHQUEST rubber tracks maximize that durability while also providing the best traction. They feature various tread patterns that perform well and provide longer track life, even when used on hard or rocky surfaces. “We have had substantial success with these products and sell to OEMs that use EARTHQUEST as their aftermarket brand, as well as to rental companies, landscapers, land clearance contractors, and farmers,” said Davis, who added that “the rubber tracks were immediately accepted. They are very reliable products, and we only have to sell them once. In fact, we haven’t had a legitimate warranty claim in over eight years where a track had failed due to a manufacturer defect.”

Track shoes in various widths are available.

Rubber tracks are available for customers’ compact track loaders and excavators.

Another of Wilson-Finley’s popular offerings is its line of ground engaging tools (GETs), he said. “We have an enormous inventory of ground engaging tools, including bucket teeth for small, medium and large machines, as well as both bolt-on and weld-on adapters, side cutters, plow bolts and grader blades.” Davis said the latter attachment blends well with the other inventory of innovative products that Wilson-Finley offers through its partnership with Valley Blades, a Canadian manufacturer that has sold its products in the Southeast through the North Carolina company for more than 15 years. Among the GETs that it has in stock, Wilson-Finley’s biggest sellers are those for mid-size, 20-ton excavators and

mid-sized loaders/dozers as well as compact track loaders, he said. “Our volume of bucket teeth and cutting edges have probably tripled in the last 10 years. As a result, we have developed a huge inventory of all those parts and keep a complete record of what our customers purchase so that when they return to our parts department, we can serve their needs as efficiently as possible. Knowing what a particular customer’s needs are even before they enter the store is what Wilson-Finley calls “added value,” which Davis said seems to help the company retain repeat business.” see PARTS page 94

Many leading brands of rollers and idlers are in stock ready for customers when they need them.

Fourth Generation Plans to Keep Family Business Going PARTS from page 92

“Customers can visit any of our facilities, and if they call ahead, the parts they need are staged, ready for pickup, their invoice has been prepared and they can be on their way. That’s our long-term goal at Wilson-Finley: to work in our customers best interests by solving their problems and supplying the highest quality parts for the lowest and most competitive prices.” Each Wilson-Finley Branch Strategically Located Achieving that company objective, he added, is why Wilson-Finley put a great deal of thought into where it built its branches in the Southeast. The company offers its customers one-day service from its main distribution center in Raleigh to each of its branches even though it maintains a substantial parts stockpile in each retail center. While inventory expansion is always a focus at WilsonFinley, he prefers to accomplish that goal within its current footprint and not lengthen its one-day service. “I want us to remain a regional company,” Davis said. In April 2020, Wilson-Finley moved its Charlotte branch from a building on Reames Road that it had occupied for 45 years to an older facility at 6800 Freedom Dr. the company had updated to modern standards. “After searching around, we found our new home and moved in right in the middle of the pandemic, a time when there was a lot of uncertainty in the world,” he said. “I credit our staff for the amazing job they did in a short period of time moving our Charlotte branch from one place to another. It

has been very successful in the new location.” Typical of Wilson-Finley’s branches, the Queen City facility has four service bays and when the weather allows, the company’s shop personnel have space outside to work on equipment. “It also has plenty of room for parts storage on the inside,” according to Davis. “The customers seem to like the new facility. In fact, the most positive comments we have heard from them is that the Charlotte branch offers easy access because it is located just off I-485.” CompanyÊs Future in Good Hands With Next Generation Over its 70-year existence, keeping the business all in the family has likely assisted Wilson-Finley in establishing a friendly environment for its customers and helping them feel more relaxed while making their buying decisions. Davis added that the founders instilled a culture within Wilson-Finley where people want to enjoy a productive work experience and, in many cases, remain there a long time. “We are all about service and you cannot have a top service company without good people,” he said. “My son, Weston, was trained by a manager that was here for over 45 years. We also had two wholesale guys who were here for over 45 years, one of whom worked here for over 53 years. There was another sales associate in Atlanta who was with us for 28 years, and a manager in Richmond who retired after 25 years. All of these people had a tremendous amount of knowledge about this type of business.”

Now it is up to Weston and Austin Davis as the fourth generation to carry on the family legacy of keeping WilsonFinley prosperous when their grandfather and parents step aside. “Currently, my role is in wholesale,” Weston Davis said when asked about his duties. When he was out of school each summer from North Carolina State University in Raleigh, Weston used the time to learn the family business. “I wanted to begin in the service shop, which has helped a lot,” he said. “I couldn’t imagine coming in and not knowing what I am selling after I graduated. I learned pretty much everything from the veteran people who had been here for years.” His brother, Austin, also an N.C. State graduate, works in retail sales at Wilson-Finley, where he deals with area landscapers, construction companies and farmers. “I worked here, too, during the summers as a shop technician and a parts runner — really, I did a little bit of everything,” he said. Their father noted proudly that both of his sons spent time “working in the shops, underneath crawler equipment and in the grease and dirt” to have a knowledge of all aspects of the business. “This experience has helped them understand and communicate more efficiently with their customers,” Jay Davis said.  CEG (All photographs in this article are Copyright 2025 Construction Equipment Guide, except where noted.

NCDOT Moves Forward With Project Due to Savings NCDOT from page 8

Joe Minicozzi, an urban planner and a founding member of the Asheville Design Center (ADC), said he “blew a gasket” when he saw new plans for the project, which featured a design he believed was killed in 2010. It was not mentioned, specifically, during a February 2025 update on the project from NCDOT to the Asheville City Council, but a slide presentation from Nathan Moneyham, a construction engineer for the state agency’s Division 13 office, showed an eight-lane overpass across Patton Avenue as it approaches the Bowen Bridge, which would intersect the street between the Sam’s Club and Westgate shopping centers, according to Asheville Watchdog. Minicozzi and others have spent decades advocating for changes to the I-26 Connector — among them, pushing for Patton Avenue to be rebuilt as a boulevard on both sides of the river to make it less of a suburban highway design, and more akin to the downtown core. In its entirety, the $1.3 billion NCDOT project will design a median-divided freeway accessible only by interchanges, which will connect I-26 in southwest Asheville to U.S. Highways 19/23/70 throughout the northwest part of the city.

The overpass is part of the project’s north section, which runs from Haywood Road in West Asheville and crosses the French Broad to connect to the three federal highways by Broadway Street. At $1 billion, the designbuild contract for this section is the largest ever awarded by NCDOT. In May 2024, Archer-Wright Joint Venture won the contract, which underwent a sixmonth “optimization and refinement process” after all contract costs for the northern section came in over budget, the CitizenTimes noted. The process shaved about $124 million off the initial cost estimate for the project. But Moneyham told the newspaper in February 2025 via email that the design change of I-26 over Patton Avenue was submitted as an “alternative technical concept” by Archer-Wright before the optimization and refinement process. NCDOT reviewed and approved it in July 2023. While the preference for Patton Avenue over I-26 was accounted for, ultimately the cost and schedule savings of the change were significant enough to win the project, Moneyham said. “This cost difference can be attributed to the reduced utility conflicts, reduction of temporary work and reduced associated

schedule risks with the I-26 over Patton [Avenue] design,” he said. “These conflicts are not new but the significant cost to relocate utilities and phase construction were significantly more than previously estimated.” Without the cost savings from ArcherWright’s initial bid, and the further savings realized in the optimization and refinement process, Moneyham explained that the department would not have been able to move forward and the project would have been delayed indefinitely. ADC was founded in 2006 by designers, architects and engineers determined to produce alternative, more community-oriented solutions for the I-26 Connector. In 2010, the nonprofit announced that the previous over-Patton Avenue design would no longer be considered an alternative by NCDOT. It would be less expensive by about $13 million to have I-26 go under Patton, according to another report from that same year. Now, though, it is said to be the more expensive option. “The money is going to speak there,” said Bruce Emory, a retired civil engineer, transportation planner, and ADC member. While there have been positive changes,

and the east side of the river, closer to downtown, is hopefully poised to become a more urban and pedestrian-oriented street, he was also concerned about a change that eliminated a ramp from I-240 to Patton Avenue, making it more difficult to get to or from parts of downtown and the South Slope. Chris Joyell, a former ADC executive director, said he is optimistic about changes for Patton Avenue east of the river — like those that would scale back impacts to Hill Street and Hillcrest apartments, and plans to reduce the speed limit on Patton to 25 mph as it enters downtown Asheville — but the I26 overpass on the west side troubles him. ADC “fought long and hard” to bring the highway under Patton Avenue, not only to protect the viewshed from West Asheville to downtown, but to prevent cyclists and pedestrians from being forced to cross under hundreds of ft. of concrete to traverse the corridor. “I don’t give up hope that this project can still get better. And I still think that the design-build process allows for that to happen. So, my message to [NCDOT] is, ‘Don’t stop now,’” Joyell said. “Don’t treat the west side of the river as the sacrifice zone for this project.” 
