Representatives from the City of Leesburg, St. Johns River Water Management District (SJRWMD), Dewberry, and Wharton-Smith joined together to celebrate the topping out of the Turnpike Wastewater Treatment Facility Improvement and Expansion Project.

Since mobilization 11 months earlier, the project team has worked 100,000 manhours, placed 5,100 cubic yards of concrete, moved 8,000 cubic yards of dirt, injected 1,500 cubic yards of grout, and installed 4,200 lineal feet of pipe. As a result of the team’s hard work, Wharton-Smith will be providing CMAR services for the next phase of the expansion, valued at $30 million.

A huge thanks to everyone involved in the project so far!
