project
Upgrading one of America’s most essential freight corridors
Jacobs delivered critical seismic retrofits along a vital stretch of Interstate 80 near Fernley, Nevada, strengthening bridges that support people, freight and economic activity across the western United States. Through advanced structural engineering, careful construction staging and close coordination with the Nevada Department of Transportation, the project extended the service life of eight bridges and reinforced the region’s ability to remain connected during and after major seismic events.
