Phase 2 N 89 Pathway
In 2011, Westwood Curtis Construction constructed a 7,500-foot paved pathway for Teton County within Grand Teton National Park and adjacent to the National Elk Refuge.
Project highlights include:
Installation of culverts ranging from 18” to 42” in diameter
Use of geogrid reinforcing mat, excavation, grading, and crushed gravel
Placement of asphalt pavement, signage, and guardrail
Construction of a 75-foot tunnel beneath Highway 89
Day and night construction shifts to minimize traffic impacts and reduce time within the public right-of-way
This project required precise coordination within a high-traffic corridor and sensitive environmental setting while maintaining access and safety throughout construction.
MIDDLE CONNECTOR PATHWAY TUNNEL
Westwood Curtis Construction excavated and installed a 101-foot precast concrete tunnel beneath Highway 22 to safely route pathway traffic across one of Wyoming’s busiest transportation corridors. The project was completed during peak tourist season while maintaining two-way traffic throughout construction.
Project highlights include:
Excavation and installation of a 101-foot precast concrete pathway tunnel
Construction beneath Highway 22, the busiest non-interstate highway in Wyoming
Work performed during peak tourist season with continuous two-way traffic maintained
Coordination of mass excavation operations in a constrained roadway environment
Installation of storm drainage and dry utilities as part of the tunnel infrastructure
Careful traffic control and sequencing to minimize congestion and disruption
This project demonstrates Westwood Curtis’s ability to execute complex underground infrastructure work in high-traffic conditions while maintaining safety, access, and schedule integrity.
PINE GLADES TUNNEL
Westwood Curtis Construction excavated and installed a 980-foot tunnel beneath Snow King Mountain Resort to provide access to a newly developed subdivision in Jackson, Wyoming. Due to an accelerated design timeline, Westwood Curtis was engaged early in the process to provide value engineering and construction planning support.
Project highlights include:
Excavation and installation of a 980-foot tunnel beneath Snow King Mountain Resort
Early involvement in value engineering to determine construction methods and feasibility
Coordination on precast tunnel dimensions, sequencing, and scheduling
Excavation reaching depths of up to 80 feet below existing grade
Execution under complex geotechnical and access conditions
Commendation from OSHA inspectors for safety procedures and compliance
This project demonstrates Westwood Curtis’s capability to manage deep, technically complex tunnel construction while maintaining high safety standards and schedule coordination.
HIDDEN RANCH TUNNEL
Beginning in 2010, Westwood Curtis Construction constructed a pedestrian underpass in Jackson, Wyoming to provide safe access to the Hidden Ranch residential area. The project required demolition of an existing underpass and retaining walls, all within a narrow roadway and highly constrained work zone.
Project highlights include:
Removal of an existing pedestrian underpass and retaining walls
Construction within a restricted work zone and narrow roadway
Installation of steel pilings in drilled shafts
Construction of timber retaining walls
Grading, subdrain installation, and paving
Relocation of underground utilities
This project reflects Westwood Curtis’s ability to deliver precise underground and pedestrian infrastructure work in constrained urban environments while maintaining access and safety.
