Congratulations to [Mayor Erin Stewart and the City of New Britain](https://twitter.com/erinstewartct) on the dedication of the recently completed Beehive Bridge!

 It was an honor to have been acknowledged during the ceremony for our role during the conceptualization phase of the project as part of the dedicated design team of [Fuss & O’Neill](https://www.fando.com/),  [Pirie Associates](https://www.pirieassociates.com/), [Svigals + Partners](https://www.svigals.com/), and [Richter and Cegan](http://www.richtercegan.com/). The project took five years from conceptualization to completion which, given the challenges of working on a State owned bridge, was pretty fast.
