Concrete Contractor: Fessler & Bowman, Inc.
Concrete Supplier: Hercules Materials Holding, LLC.
Owner: Triple R. Trucking, Inc.

Triple R Trucking has long been a major contributor for transporting cement throughout Michigan, surrounding states, and Canada. Driving to and from Bay City and Grand Rapids, the owners felt it was long overdue to have their fleet more readily available for their multiple clients in the heart of Detroit as well. The result is a stunning 300,000 square foot 8-inch-thick parking lot and truck maintenance facility just off I-75 and the Rouge River, and directly next to CRH as well as St. Mary’s Cement plant.

Due to its location along the railroad tracks and proximity to other facilities, scheduling proved tedious work when delivering ready-mixed concrete and other equipment on site. Entrances and exits were constantly blocked by bulkers of cement coming in and out being delivered to neighboring CRH terminals.

Despite scheduling and working with other entities, Triple R Trucking’s parking lot was completed ahead of schedule. Working together for the first time, Fessler & Bowman and Hercules seamlessly constructed the strong, durable parking lot with Hercules delivering an average of 200 cubic yards per hour to the site in 5 large placements. The result is a pristine parking lot will service Triple R’s cement bulkers for decades to come.
