The Buck O’Neil Bridge replacement in Kansas City exemplifies how design-build can overcome complexity to deliver a project the city and stakeholders can be proud of. This session will highlight strategies for navigating multi-agency coordination in a constrained urban footprint, leveraging design-build to create a future-ready, multi-modal corridor, and integrating cultural legacy into modern engineering solutions. Panelists will share how early risk mitigation and innovative procurement approaches enabled the project team to maximize value within finite resources while maintaining schedule and budget. Attendees will gain practical insights into resolving common challenges—such as stakeholder alignment, environmental compliance, and scope optimization—through integrated delivery. Lessons learned from this award-winning effort will empower participants to apply proven integrated delivery approaches to their own projects, reinforcing why collaboration is essential for success in today’s transportation landscape.
