Kansas City Levees UPRR Closure Structure
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers requires the construction of four flood closure structures (two stoplog and two sandbag) at railroad bridges in Kansas City, Kansas. The work involves building associated floodwalls and fabricating all stoplog components, which must be test-fitted upon completion. Construction requires close coordination with the railroad for plan approvals, track outages, and safety flagging operations. The contractor must also provide on-site storage structures for the stoplog components. The project location is the Armourdale and Central Industrial District levee units along the Kansas River.
