SNC-Lavalin was awarded a design and engineering contract to replace the Shepard Broad Causeway bridge in south Florida. The project will provide multi-modal safety improvements, increase mobility, enhance hurricane evacuation capability and ease daily and seasonal congestion by replacing the aging bascule bridge with a bridge that meets current design standards and is consistent with United States Coast Guard (USCG) regulations. The Shepard Broad Causeway bridge plays a critical role in facilitating traffic between the beaches and mainland Miami-Dade County over the navigable Intracoastal Waterway.

The Company has successfully delivered several similar Florida based projects including I-75 over the Caloosahatchee River, I-275 Howard Frankland Bridge over Tampa Bay, the Cortez Bridge over the Gulf Intracoastal Waterway and the I-4/Selmon Expressway Connector interchange.
