Infrastructure and Transportation
Geo-Solutions regularly performs work for public and private sector clients engaged in the improvement of existing or construction of new infrastructure on transportation and other types of development projects. Geo-Solutions maintains strong relationships with many of the larger general contractors or construction managers that are typically involved in these sorts of projects, but Geo-Solutions has also been engaged directly by Owners and public agencies too. Work in these industries ranges from ground improvement for new construction to environmental remediation prior to site development.
