McCourt’s on-going work at the Canal St. project has featured the placement of light weight foam concrete.

This material is being used in place of regular soils in areas that could not support the weight of typical gravel, dense grade, and other subsurface materials. This specialized work will allow McCourt to continue full depth roadway reconstruction on Canal St.

McCourt assisted the MBTA in celebrating the Blue Hill Avenue Station “Ground Breaking” today in Mattapan.  McCourt Construction is the general contractor on this station, the last to be built on the Fairmount Commuter Rail Line.  With extensive community involvement in design and location, this station has been years in the planning stage.  It boasts a location just ¼ mile from Mattapan Square and a travel time to South Station of just 20 minutes, drastically cutting the normal auto commuting time.  Governor Baker and Secretary of Transportation Pollack were just a few of the dignitaries on hand for the celebration.
