We're proud to have been a part of this project, and to have worked alongside great partners. The success of this project wouldn't have been possible without the communication and collaboration of everyone involved.
The Desert Highway Rehab on SR 18 is a shining example of what happens when people come together with a common goal. Honored as “Best in Class” by the Caltrans Excellence in Partnering Awards, this project is more than just another successful completion – it’s a story of teamwork and trust in action. From the very beginning, Caltrans District 8 and Sully-Miller Contracting Co. built a partnership based on open communication and a genuine commitment to supporting each other through every challenge. This wasn’t just about hitting milestones; it was about creating a space where every team member felt heard, valued, and ready to tackle the road ahead together. Because of this collaborative spirit, the project wrapped up on time, stayed within budget, and maintained a stellar safety record – a testament to what’s possible when a team is truly aligned.
