HDR Is Building A Bridge to the Future, Henderson, KY 42420

Drone Brother, on behalf of HDR-(Henningson, Durham & Richardson), captured aerial photos and videos of the construction of the Interstate 69 Ohio River Crossing (I-69 ORX), a nearly $1.4-billion design-build project being built in three phases. It will eventually result in a new bridge over the Ohio River connecting Evansville, Ind., and Henderson, Ky. 

The Indiana work consists of building the southbound lanes of I-69 to provide all-weather access to the river, making it possible to construct the river bridge. The approach project entails construction of a floodplain bridge; an I-69 southbound bridge over the Ohio River floodplain and Eagle Creek floodplain; and embankment islands on each end of the bridges.  The work being done in Kentucky includes improvements to I-69 in Henderson between KY 425 and US 60 and is being managed by the Kentucky Transportation Cabinet (KYTC).

From Aerospace, to Power, to Transportation, and multiple other markets in between, for HDR, doing things right starts by creating meaningful experiences for their employees where they feel welcomed, valued, and respected.
