News Release > Carolinas AGC Announces 2008 Pinnacle Award WinnersFor additional information contact Lori Tharp - Carolinas AGC NC 12 BRIDGE REPLACEMENTS & CAROLINA BRIDGE EARN TOP INDUSTRY HONORS
Because the site on Ocracoke Island was accessible only by boat or plane, 750 truckloads of equipment and materials had to be brought entirely by ferry. NCDOT’s Chief Engineer has called this project the best example of coordination he had ever seen. The annual Carolinas AGC Pinnacle Awards are the most prestigious recognition in the Carolinas construction industry. Member firms can be honored for their performance as a company, or for a specific project. As the largest AGC chapter in the nation with 2,800 member firms, Carolinas AGC’s mission is to build its members’ businesses through workforce development, business development and profit management. More than 75% of commercial and industrial construction (buildings, highways/bridges, utility facilities) in both North and South Carolina is performed or supported by Carolinas AGC members.
