Bergmann Recognized for Excellence in Engineering & Surveying at Michigan ACEC/M Awards

University Drive Diverging Diamond Interchange

Bergmann Associates was recognized by the American Council of Engineering Companies of Michigan (ACEC/M) with an Engineering Honorable Conceptor Award for their work on the University Drive Diverging Diamond Interchange in the city of Auburn Hills, Michigan, at a recent awards ceremony.

“Bergmann Associates was excited to be a part of this project, which was the first diverging diamond interchange built in Michigan,” said Richard Chelotti, senior vice president Midwest Region, Bergmann Associates. “We delivered an innovative design that saved considerable bridge length and avoided introducing risky soils into the area.”

Bergmann Associates was the primary designer on the project, working as a subcontractor to Dan Excavating. The “Design/Build” effort was engineered to enhance the aesthetics of the area, while creating a highly efficient interchange. This project was delivered by the professionals from Bergmann Associates Lansing office, which features a team of more than 60 architects, engineers, planners and program managers.
