Timmons Group’s Post

It's that time of year again... Timmons Group Parks Week is back! Follow along this week as we feature a variety of projects that our teams have worked on that bring the excitement and accessibility of parks and recreation to our local communities. First up is Morrow Mountain State Park! Located in Stanly County, the 5,881-acre Morrow Mountain State Park within the Uwharrie Mountains is a beloved destination for nature lovers and adventurers alike. Whether you're into camping, hiking, boating, or horseback riding, Morrow Mountain has something for everyone. As part of a significant renovation effort funded by the North Carolina Division of Parks and Recreation, Timmons Group worked with Huffman Architects, PA, to enhance the park's accessibility and meet compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA).

Did you know hydrographic survey systems can provide real-time data, allowing for immediate analysis and decision-making? 🛥️🗺️ Our Richmond survey teams use a hydrographic survey boat equipped with advanced GPS, sonar, and drone technology to collect precise data on underwater conditions. This allows us to measure and define features beneath the water that impact marine activities such as port and harbor maintenance (dredging), marine construction, and offshore resource development. This lightweight, portable, and user-friendly solution makes it perfect for our more intricate projects. Curious about how the Timmons Group Hydro Craft can benefit your project?

Have you ever heard of a 'Bridge' Day? We hadn't either until our structural design team told us! Bridge Days are weekdays that bridge a holiday and weekend... Who knew?! To celebrate, we're highlighting a unique bridge that our structures team recently completed in Cuba. The Guantanamo Bay Bridge Rehabilitation project involved the structural repair of a bridge built in the 1950s located at Naval Station Guantanamo Bay, otherwise known as GTMO.

Did you know the James River area attracts over 3.5 million visitors annually? 🌊 Since 2013, the James River Association (JRA) has launched its annual James River Watch Program, which runs from Memorial Day to Labor Day. This initiative relies on a team of volunteers to collect weekly water samples for the James River Watch Map, which helps monitor the river's health and keeps swimmers, paddlers, and boaters informed about the local river conditions. Last week, Timmons Group's urban design team volunteered with the James River Watch Program, collecting water samples at Mayo Bridge, Tredegar, and Rocketts Landing. We're proud to be part of the initiative that supports the health of our local watershed and community. Thank you to our friends at JRA for your ongoing efforts to protect the James and keep our community safe! Heading out to the James this weekend? Check out the James River Watch map every Friday for the latest report >> https://lnkd.in/e2itp6qB #UrbanStormwater #RVA #Recreation
