Clovis-based Blair Church & Flynn Consulting Engineers (BC&F) has secured a contract for utility relocation design work in the Central Valley from the California High-Speed Rail Authority and Tutor-Perini/Zachary/Parsons (TPZP) joint venture (JV).

The $1.6m contract is part of the first construction package, which runs from Avenue 17 in Madera to East American Avenue in Fresno.

Irrigation facilities, storm drain lines, and water and sewer mains will be relocated.

Authority Central Valley regional director Diana Gomez said: "We are committed to ensuring that Central Valley companies are a part of designing and building this transformative project."

"Valley companies provide valuable local expertise and we are serious about making an effort get businesses in the Central Valley to work."
