Hurricane Dorian delivered a devastating blow to two major islands in The Bahamas — Grand Bahama and Abaco. In an effort to raise awareness and help out our Bahamian neighbors, Central Civil Construction served as a collection point for humanitarian aid and other emergency supplies on Friday, September 6, 2019. Central Civil invited organizations in the community to participate by bringing supplies to our location. Our team had a pallet of water (and the additional collected supplies) dropped off at SeaHunter. #BahamasStrong #CentralCivil

Central Civil Construction has consistently demonstrated that it is professional and competent. The firm performed a number of difficult projects that included logistical and schedule challenges. Central Civil, to our great satisfaction, was able to surmount them. One of the best completed projects, by Central Civil, has been the construction of the high-speed exit taxiways where Central Civil managed to finish before time and earned an incentive placed by SCAD to reduce the impact of the closure of the main runway on the airlines and the community.

Additionally, safety has been regarded as top priority by all and has been evident at all times during our different construct ion phases. Central Civil has shown its ability to collaborate as team players and has been flexible in dealing with any on-site work issues. They earned our respect.

Central Civil Construction has consistently demonstrated a professional and ethical caliber during this time. The firm has performed many projects over the years, of which most have been challenging logistically as well as with respect to schedule. Most recently, Central Civil has completed the $45M FIU PG5 and $14M Sheltair Aviation Facility where I served as Senior Project Manager. FIU PG5 was a multi-use garage, office, classroom, police station and five restaurants. The project involved heavy site and civil work including the installation of a lift station. Central Civil was very instrumental in delivering this project on time for the university.

Central Civil was not the original contractor for site and civil for the Sheltair Aviation Facility. With months left in the project and over $3M left to complete in site and civil work, Central Civil stepped in to take over for the previous contractor that abandoned the project. Central Civil was able to provide the technical assistance, manpower and equipment required to maintain the project's schedule. Utilizing quality sub-contractors has proven to be a definite strength of Central Civil. Schedules have also continually been maintained as all projects have been completed on time. Additionally, safety has been regarded as top priority by all and has been evident at all times. Central Civil has shown their ability to collaborate as team players and have been willing to be flexible with any on-site work issues. Central Civil Construction is truly a firm that Turner Construction Company will continue to work with in the future.
