The I‑10 Broadway Curve Improvement Project has earned one of ACEC Arizona’s 2025 Grand Awards in its Excellence in Arizona Engineering Awards. This recognition honors exceptional collaboration, innovation, and infrastructure impact across the Phoenix metro corridor.
“We had a great team, from our client ADOT to our JV partners and designers. It’s a special feeling to get an accolade of this level.”
That’s Senior Project Manager Amy Haymaker reacting to the I-10 Broadway Curve Improvement Project being selected as a 2025 Grand Award Winner by ACEC Arizona for its Excellence in Arizona Engineering Awards. “With its numerous innovations, including collector‑distributor roads, Broadway Curve demonstrates that great things in infrastructure are happening in Arizona,” said Pulice President Victor Jimenez. I am honored to be part of the great team receiving this award.”
An advanced team for an advanced project
Running through Phoenix, Tempe, Guadalupe, and Chandler, the Broadway Curve project was the largest urban freeway reconstruction in ADOT’s history. The joint venture of Pulice, FNF and FlatironDragados constructed the project using the design-build delivery method. Pulice is a FlatironDragados subsidiary. T.Y. Lin International served as lead designer. Despite complex stakeholder dynamics and multiple jurisdictions, the design-build model facilitated direct communication, integrated decision-making, and rapid resolution of challenges.
Major project features included:
- Widening I‑10 to six general-purpose and two HOV lanes in each direction between I‑17 and US 60
- Adding an extra general lane from US 60 to Loop 202
- Building collector-distributor (CD) roads to separate local and through traffic
- Reconstructing the I‑10 / SR 143 interchange with direct HOV flyovers
- Rebuilding or replacing 20+ bridges
- Enhancing pedestrian, bicycle, and trail access
Construction began in 2021 and reached substantial completion in spring 2025.
