Thompson Engineering

Thompson Engineering recently joined state and local leaders in Chattanooga, Tennessee, to celebrate the completion of the I-75 and I-24 interchange rebuild.

As the lead firm managing this $328 million project, we were proud to see this seven-year effort reach its final milestone. This work involved a massive rebuild of the interchange and the widening of several miles of interstate to help ease traffic for the thousands of drivers who use this corridor every day.

It was a privilege to work alongside myTDOT (Tennessee Department of Transportation) and Wright Brothers Construction Company, Inc. to deliver this much-needed roadway improvement to the Hamilton County community.

We are proud to see the main entrance to Little River State Forest officially open to the public!

Our Structural Team designed the new timber bridge for the main entrance road, a key piece of the Phase I improvements at the Claude D. Kelley Recreational Area. In partnership with the Alabama Forestry Commission, the bridge was intentionally designed with timber materials to pay homage to Alabama's natural resources. It was an honor to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony alongside state officials and members of the North Escambia community to celebrate the reopening of this beautiful site.

We are excited for the families who will once again make memories at this park. The new bridge serves as a gateway to the new campground, fishing pier, and years of future outdoor adventures for the region.
