IRVINE, Calif., Dec. 05, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shimmick Construction Company, Inc. ("Shimmick"), a leader in critical infrastructure, water, and transit solutions, announced today that it has been awarded a key role in the North Hollywood to Pasadena Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Project by Los Angeles Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LA Metro). Shimmick, with our partner Myers and Sons, as part of the Myers-Shimmick Joint Venture (MSJV), will serve as the Construction Manager/General Contractor (CM/GC) for the project's preconstruction services phase.
