WEEK-END UPDATE: HRGS We’re making steady progress on the Hudson River Ground Stabilization Project! The team removed obstructions within the current work area and is now working on mixing concrete into the soil in columns and wedges. So far, 250 primary and secondary columns and 6 wedge elements have been installed.

We are thrilled to announce that the Hudson Yards Concrete Casing – Section 3 Project has reached the halfway mark and is on track to be finished on schedule in 2026.    HYCC-3 is building the final segment of the rail right-of-way beneath Hudson Yards that will connect the new tunnel under the Hudson River to New York Penn Station.    This is the second Hudson Tunnel Project construction package that has passed the halfway point on time and on budget.    Read our press release here: https://lnkd.in/eyxiw-tE
