Sukut’s Public Works Team has pursued and completed projects from $1 million to $100 million in value and continues to grow in size, scope, and geographically.
The Avenida La Pata Extension
Location: South Orange County, CA
Description:
This $136 million La Pata Extension Project is the largest roadway project in the (OCPW) Orange County Public Works department’s history. The project has created a much needed alternate route for South County communities. The three to five lane roadway begins in San Clemente and connects through San Juan Capistrano, Mission Viejo, and Rancho Santa Margarita as a bypass to the crowded I-5. Sukut Construction began working on the 3.6-mile “gap connector” in 2014. During the project, approximately 900,000 cubic yards of refuse and more than 14.8 million cubic yards of soil were successfully excavated by the Sukut Construction team. Avenida La Pata was completed after four years, creating a traffic-free alternative for motorists.
