These prestigious awards celebrate and honor the best construction projects and the companies that designed and built them in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The projects are selected by juries of industry professionals and are evaluated on criteria including safety, innovation, contribution to the industry and community, aesthetic and functional quality of design, and construction quality and craftsmanship.
"We are honored to receive these esteemed awards from ENR, recognizing our team's commitment to excellence in delivering these impactful projects," said Eric Stenman, Balfour Beatty US president and chief executive officer. "These accolades reflect our dedication to innovation, safety, and quality in construction, as well as our focus on creating long-term value for our clients and the communities we serve."
