The redevelopment at the YTI Container Terminal’s berth 214-220 won the $11-$50 million transportation infrastructure award — a project involved dredging, wharf improvements like rail cranes, and further utility developments including fire hydrant installations.
The awards were presented at the CMAA Southern California Chapter Annual Awards Gala in downtown Los Angeles.
The CMAA looks to promote the construction management profession and the use of qualified construction managers on capital projects and programs — featuring a membership of 15,000 practitioners, public and private sector construction owners, academics and other industry actors across 29 regional chapters.
