An old friend contacted me last week looking for a bridge superintendent. His company is moving into bridge work and PennDOT tells him an experienced bridge super (particularly one that has built PennDOT bridges) will be a big plus in their certification.

His firm has been around for decades and has an excellent reputation. They are also starting up a bridge design and engineering firm at the same time, which will give them the ability to value engineer. This seems like a good opportunity for the right person. Shoot me a note if you have an interest.

I’m glad to see more construction companies expanding in many different ways. I remember hearing way back in 2008 that it may be 2013 till the construction market rebounds, which seemed kind of crazy. Now it seems prophetic.

I expect lots of projects to come out of the gates hard in 2013. The pent up demand, particularly in the industrial and commercial sector, should start driving the dream.
