OKMULGEE, Oklahoma _ As Oklahoma continues the process of phased reopening and the economy rebounds from weeks-long closure due to COVID-19, a local company is making sure transportation needs are met for the residents of one community in the state.
Local company Premier Steel will install its Fast Cast Bridge™ System at Hectorville Road near Okmulgee, which is highly traveled by residents and industrial vehicles. The installation will take place on May 29, 2020, at 1 p.m. and is being live streamed at https://premiersteelservices.com/livestream
Because of its patent-pending modular, steel frame, the Fast Cast Bridge™ System allows for quick and safe completion of projects. It is a one-of-a-kind system that allows the installation of a bridge in just a few hours and lasts for decades, allowing for cost-effective installation and maintenance. The entire process – from grading to clean up – takes only a few days and installation happens in a matter of hours.
“This is an important County artery,” said Okmulgee County Commissioner Ron Ballard. “By installing this system, we are showing our commitment to the residents of northern Okmulgee County and the surrounding communities. We are proud to partner with a local company, Premier Steel, on this project.”
The road acts as an important thoroughfare for the community, and by using the Fast Cast Bridge™ System, local officials are showing their dedication to transportation needs in the area.
Premier Steel has previously partnered with several tribal nations to complete various infrastructure projects – including a Fast Cast pedestrian bridge within the Pawnee Nation.
