Élan’s Marcie Weslock was the project manager and lead civil engineer on the Blue Line Paver Replacement project for Metro Transit. The original design on the platforms includes pavers that have not held up well to the Minnesota winters. The goal of this project was to replace the pavers with fiber-reinforced colored concrete. This project was distinctive due to the need to perform the construction over a single shutdown weekend. The construction logistics required many unique details and readily available materials to ease construction. Construction has taken place on five platforms. Three additional platforms were designed and built in 2015.
