CHESHIRE, CT The joint venture team of The Lane Construction Corporation's subsidiary, S.A. Healy Company, and Salini Impregilo have won a design-bid-build contract in Indiana, valued at $188 million.

The Three Rivers Protection & Overflow Reduction Tunnel (3RPORT) is a combined sewer overflow (CSO) tunnel project located in Fort Wayne, Indiana, and it includes a deep rock tunnel, drop shafts, and consolidation sewers, to collect and convey combined sewer overflow from eight locations along the St. Mary and Maumee Rivers. Once completed, the CSO tunnel system will reduce 90 percent of combined sewage overflows into the rivers, which occur during large rainstorms.

Work is expected to begin in the spring of 2017 and to be completed by mid-year 2021.

The 3RPORT CSO tunnel project is Salini Impregilo and S.A. Healy's fourth CSO tunnel project together in the U.S. S.A Healy and Salini Impregilo are currently working on the Anacostia River Tunnel project in Washington, D.C., along with Parsons Construction Group, and the Dugway Storage Tunnel project in Cleveland, Ohio. Together the team has previously completed the West Side CSO project in Portland, Oregon. S.A. Healy and Salini Impregilo have teamed on six completed or ongoing tunnel projects totaling over 20 miles of bored tunnels.
