The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced that the agency has entered into a Construction Manager General Contractor (CMGC) agreement with Superior Construction Co. Inc. to provide preconstruction services for the 80/94 FlexRoad project. This is the second CMGC project for INDOT.

The 80/94 FlexRoad project in Lake County, Ind., and Cook County, Ill., includes the implementation of Transportation Systems Management and Operations (TSMO) strategies to maximize the safety and efficiency of the existing I-80/I-94 corridor. Also known as the Borman Expressway, the 14-mi. segment spans from the I-65 and I-80/94 interchange in Indiana to the I-80/94 and IL-394 interchange in Illinois.

The project will implement integrated Active Traffic Management (ATM) and Intelligent Transportation System (ITS) solutions including improved digital message signs (DMS), variable speed limits, dynamic lane control, dynamic shoulder lanes, queue warning and ramp metering throughout the project corridor.

Other work includes fiber optic improvements throughout the corridor, modifying the I-65 and Broadway interchanges with I-80/I-94, concrete pavement restoration, installation of gantry structures over I-80/I-94 and drainage improvements.

The CMGC delivery method includes two project phases, the preconstruction phase and the construction phase.

The CMGC preconstruction phase is expected to begin in April 2025, with construction expected to start in late summer or early fall 2025. Design, led by Parsons Corp., is anticipated to be complete in 2026.
