Transportation Market
The movement of goods and services through an effective transportation system is critical to economic development and sustainable growth. Transportation planners and engineers at every level of government are faced with the same issue: limited funding and aging infrastructure. Uncertain state budgets and federal funding have placed an unprecedented burden on maintaining an effective transportation system to meet public demand. BSK understands these issues. We have been supporting the transportation segment for over 40 years-from initial design support to construction. BSK delivers engineering services at every level of the transportation life cycle providing cost effective solutions while maintaining design integrity. BSK has worked with state, local, and federal transportation agencies, civil engineering and construction firms, as well as transit agencies and railroads.

County of Kern, Meadows Field Airport Runway 12L-30R Rehabilitation, Bakersfield, CA
Kern Valley Airport, Parallel Taxiway and Runway Widening, Kernville, CA
BSK provided geotechnical engineering investigation for a new 25-feet wide new parallel taxiway and 3,000-feet long runway widening. Site preparation recommendations included grading recommendations for cuts and fills up to 9 feet, and geotechnical laboratory testing included California Bearing Ratio, particle size, soil corrosivity and moisture-density relationship testing.
County of Kern, Meadows Field Airport Taxiway ‘A’ Reconstruction and Rehabilitation, Bakersfield, CA
Mojave Air and Space Port, Taxiway ‘C’ Rehabilitation, Mojave, CA
BSK provided geotechnical engineering investigation for the proposed taxiway improvements. The project Site is located within an active Air Operations Area (AOA) and funded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funds. The existing taxiways and connectors at this Site are in very poor to good conditions with PCI ratings for pavement in the work area ranging from 36 to 88. The project includes but is not limited to the following: saw cut,
grind, pulverize and remove sections of existing taxiway pavement, excavate and re-compact sub-grade, place aggregate base, pave taxiways with hot mix asphalt, and taxiway striping. BSK’s responsibilities included providing geotechnical data compatible with FAA AC 150/5320-6 Airport Design and Evaluation Requirements. BSK’s geotechnical investigation included a total of thirty-six (36) geotechnical borings at the existing taxiway and an additional six (6) core-only locations. Site preparation recommendations included subgrade re-compaction recommendations and recommendations for aggregate base placement and compaction.
Inyokern Airport Reconstruct Runway 2-20, Inyokern, CA
BSK is providing construction materials testing and inspection services during the construction phase of the project that will include complete removal and reconstruction of the structural section (75’ by 6,275’), electrical improvements, and pavement markings, including crosswind runways and connecting taxiways, extending to the limits of the Runway 2-20 Safety Area. The project also includes removal of Taxiway B3, including asphalt structural section and electrical components. The project Site is located within an active Air Operations Area (AOA) and funded by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Airport Improvement Program (AIP) funds.
Kern County Meadows Field Airport
From 2016 to current BSK has provide geotechnical investigation and construction material testing to support Meadows Field Airport on their major design and construction projects. The work on Runway 12L-30R has been completed in three phases over four years. The runway opening means the airport can more effectively keep the takeoff and landing of heavier commercial aircraft separate from smaller, lighter planes. Having both runways open and operating also helps keep Meadows flexible as demand grows and circumstances change.
The cost of this third and final phase of the runway project including construction, administration, inspection, and material testing was $14.5 million. In total, the cost of rehabilitating Meadows Field’s main runway is nearing $50 million
