Bay Road Update, Town of Shelburne, Vermont

Check out the timelapse video of the work our crew did from September 8th-18th. As many of you who drive through Shelburne know our directional drillers relocated the drill to Spinaker Lane to install a 950-foot shot of Sewer Main as part of the Shelburne Wastewater Treatment Facility Modernization Project. At the beginning of the timelapse there was an existing 6.5 inch pipe, and while you can't see it happening, once everything was set up the crew started expanding the hole to 12 inches, then 18 inches, with the goal of getting up to 22 inches to get the diameter needed for the pipe to fit into the hole.

Our crew has been working this summer to prep, place and finish over a mile of sidewalk at the Milton Hourglass project, and have done a phenomenal job!

🚧 As a reminder, it takes hours for the guys to pour and finish each section of sidewalk and even longer to fix when someone ignores the cones and tape and tries to walk or bike on the wet sidewalk.

🚧 Please don't be like the person in the last photo and create more work for our crew.

ECI was contracted with VTrans to perform the reconstruction of the Quarry Hill Railroad Crossing on the Washington County Railroad in Barre, VT.

Our scope of work included the full depth road reconstruction, 3 culvert replacements, crossing reconstruction, and crossing signal installation which included cantilevers and approach warning lights.

Most of the work was performed utilizing alternating one way traffic, and one very rainy 9-hour road closure.

Our crew did an amazing job pushing through difficult soil conditions, fighting through rainy weather, and did a phenomenal job coordinating all the moving parts to make this job a success.

We would like to introduce our Team Member – Sara

Sara is our Construction Administrator. In short, she is the liaison between operations and admin. While it may not be in her job description, many people have described Sara as the glue that holds the company together. Sara’s willingness to tackle new tasks and teach those around her are two of the main things that have propelled her to where she is today. Many people have commented that they appreciate how meticulous and prompt she is, and that she doesn’t let things fall through the cracks. Sara exemplifies the ECI Code of Conduct, and we are so thankful to have her on our team!

🦺 Employment at ECI:
Almost 25 years.

🦺 How have you grown at ECI:
Sara was hired as the front desk receptionist, and any time she saw a need she was the first one to offer help. The more tasks she helped others with the more they asked her to do. Sara admits that she didn’t always know what she was doing, but she would do her best and ask for feedback, and the more she tried the more comfortable she became with taking on new tasks.

🦺 Key Responsibilities:
Sara is responsible for working with the Project Managers to get insurance and bonds for our projects, and making sure the jobs are in our system so they can be billed properly. She is also responsible for obtaining and distributing company apparel to the employees, heading up the employee annual giving, planning and executing company events, and so much more.

Sara loves the customer service she provides to all the employees who come to her desk. Sara is never too busy to stop and help someone out, and if she doesn’t have an answer, she will make sure she gets one.

🦺 Best advice:
If you put in the hard work you will reap the rewards, but nothing comes for free.

🦺 What do you do for fun outside of work:
Sara enjoys traveling to warm places, camping and dragon boat racing.

🦺 Fun fact:
In 2020 Sara was diagnosed with breast cancer. Through the surgery, treatments, recovery and eventual remission the entire ECI family rallied around her. Many of the guys shaved their heads to support her through the hair loss and the company started selling pink t-shirts and sweatshirts to bring awareness to breast cancer.

🦺 What is your favorite thing about working at ECI:
The people. In her words, “The ECI team is a family who celebrates each other and helps each other grow and become better both at their job and in their every day life”.
