Transportation CVG Airport Hub

INSIDE THE PROJECT

Kokosing is serving a dual role on this significant expansion at the CVG airport. As part of a joint venture (JV), we are providing Construction Management services to the client for the construction of a new package sortation facility to accommodate their expanding operations.

Kokosing initially worked with the client starting in early 2018 as an advisor to the design team during the preconstruction phase. We provided scheduling and budgetary estimates for preliminary designs. As design progressed, Kokosing was awarded a self-perform early utility installation package to expedite relocations along Wendell Ford Road.

In March 2019, the JV was awarded the primary Construction Management contract by the client. We provided ongoing constructability review, estimating and scheduling services even as initial construction packages commenced. We are actively managing all facets of the construction including the major sortation facility and the sitework and paving.

The physical sitework entails over 7 million cubic yards of mass excavation including significant rock blasting, 75-miles of underground utilities including major storm trunk lines, water, sanitary, electric and fuel, and 500,000-square-yards of heavy-duty concrete pavement. This project is being constructed adjacent to, and in some cases within the boundary, of the CVG airport, requiring daily coordination with multiple airport entities, adjacent property owners, and local government agencies.  Kokosing is self-performing the majority of the mass earthwork and over 25 miles of underground utilities on the project.
Also included is an approximately 800’x1,600’ sortation building facility. The structure encompasses four floors of steel erection, concrete flatwork, aesthetic detailing, and all mechanical and electrical work.
