Kiewit-General Joint Venture was the grand winner in construction for the Hood Canal Bridge project.

Centennial Contractors Enterprises received the grand award for safety. GLY Construction won the AGC-Moss Adams Service to the Community Award, and Mike Lordeman of Aecon Buildings was named superintendent of the year.

Construction judges were Jeff Carpenter of the Washington State Department of Transportation; Ben Minnick of the Seattle Daily Journal of Commerce; Douglas Oberst of BCRA; Peter T.S. Rasmussen of Architects Rasmussen Triebelhorn; and John Schaufelberger of the UW Department of Construction Management.
