Tutor Perini Corporation announced that its subsidiary, Lunda Construction, has been awarded the Roberts Street Railroad Bridge Replacement Project over the Mississippi River. The project is situated in St. Paul, Minnesota, USA.

The project entails replacing the existing 113-year-old, 189-foot-long vertical lift truss bridge with a new 215-foot-long rolling bascule truss bridge. The work also includes replacing six existing steel approach bridges, rehabilitating the concrete piers, removing timber protection walls on both sides of the navigation channel, installing a new steel pile protection wall adjacent to a new support pier, constructing a 38-foot-diameter sand-filled crash bumper for the protection system, and building a concrete support platform for a new operations facility. Throughout the construction period, the existing bridge will remain operational, ensuring uninterrupted rail and marine traffic until the new bridge is fully commissioned.

Construction is scheduled to commence in July 2026, with substantial completion targeted for December 2029. While the financial terms of the contract have not been disclosed, the award will be recorded in the company's backlog for Q2 of 2026.
