Balfour Beatty, an international infrastructure group, has been entrusted with delivering over $70m in special project works across Central and South Florida in the US. This initiative showcases the company's dedication to undertaking both large and niche, quick-turn speciality projects in the region, thereby expanding its portfolio across various market sectors. Since the beginning of this year, Balfour Beatty's Buildings segment has secured more than 13 special projects from clients in Florida. These projects cover a wide range of sectors such as corporate offices, adaptive reuse, aviation, entertainment, public/civic, and mixed-use/retail.One notable project is the construction of the new 40,000ft² Crooked Can Brewery in Minneola. Work on this project is scheduled to commence in early 2025 and be completed by early 2026. Additionally, Balfour Beatty is actively engaged in the adaptive reuse of Asana Partners' Minnesota Row Business Center in Winter Park. This hospitality project for a repeat client aims to transform the six-building centre into a mixed-use complex, with completion also expected in early 2026.The company has successfully completed the new 12,290ft² Osceola County Fire Station 85 in Kissimmee and has initiated work on Fire Station 83, which is the county's 17th station and is expected to be finished in mid-2025.Other projects include the first phase of Diplomat Beach Resort's renovations, which involves 33,328ft² of improvements, and a meeting space renovation at JW Marriott's Grand Lake Orlando Resort, among others.Balfour Beatty Florida Special Projects director Henry Thacker stated, "We are extremely grateful and motivated by the over $70m in special project works this year. Balfour Beatty's investment in Florida special projects demonstrates our outstanding partnerships with new and repeat clients, driven by our dedicated team of fast-track delivery specialists. We take pride in offering a people-first experience and delivering operational excellence to every project and for every client, regardless of its size. From niche opportunities to complex undertakings, our entire team continues to bring client visions to life across Florida's diverse communities."Last month, Balfour Beatty secured a significant contract worth $746m to reconstruct a section of Interstate 35 through Austin, Texas in the US.Access the most comprehensive Company Profiles available on the market, powered by GlobalData.
