DOT Engages Minority and Women-Owned Businesses for Bridge Project
(Amsterdam News) — The Department of Transportation plans to engage more Minority and Women’s Business Enterprises (MWBE) for the rebuilding of the Kosciuszko Bridge that connects Brooklyn and Queens. At a workshop held earlier this month in Long Island City, nearly 150 community stakeholders, construction trade organizations, contractors and government services gathered to learn more about the opportunities. The approximately $700 million project, expected to be completed by 2020, will replace the current Kosciuszko Bridge with a new bridge on the east side of the existing bridge.
