Repairs Complete at Texas Ranger Spring Training Site

05 Oct 2017/in , , , /by

The City of Surprise contracted with DBA to complete the replacement of concrete pavers throughout the concourse area at their Spring Training Stadium for the Texas Rangers. The original brick pavers were heaving in several locations and creating trip hazards. After Spring Training was over, DBA began working on removing the existing pavers, compacting the affected sections and replacing the pavers with decorative, stamped concrete pads that are doweled into the rest of the concrete flatwork. The stamped sections provide a “cobblestone” look and feel, resembling the concourses typical in historic baseball stadiums across the country.

Mark Archuleta, DBA CDL Truck Driver, was recently recognized for going “above and beyond” to save a project budget dollars.  Working on DBA’s recent project at TPC Scottsdale’s Stadium Course, Mark recognized the potential to save on hauling costs and operations by striking a deal with a local AB supplier.  He suggested hauling sludge from the golf course lake to the AB supplier, rather than the landfill, who could recycle the sludge when dried for topsoil.  The idea was discussed with the Project Manager, Jordan Hamula and Marks’ immediate supervisor, Delbert Lewis who set up the arrangement with the supplier and saved the project fuel costs and time.
