ABSTRACT
The Second Creek Interceptor is a 17.5-mile pipeline extending from south of the Denver airport to Brighton, Colorado. The project required construction of 15 tunnels ranging in length from 130 to 1,500 feet long at diameters between 48 and 78 inches. Due to the length and wide range of geologic conditions, numerous tunnel design and construction techniques were necessary to balance the needs of the stakeholders and design requirements across such a long project alignment. This talk will focus on the challenges and lessons learned throughout the design and construction process of this challenging project.
