The U.S. General Services Administration (GSA) will host an ‘Industry Day’ for the Bridge of the Americas Land Port of Entry Modernization Project on July 27. During the event, GSA will announce the three finalists competing for the primary project contract.
Project Background
In August 2022, U.S. Representative Veronica Escobar hosted a meeting with GSA to kick off stakeholder engagement for the $500 million BOTA modernization. The project has since moved to a design-build phase, with construction set to begin in early 2028 and completion expected by the summer of 2031.
Rep. Escobar will face Adam Bauman in the November election to keep her seat for Congressional District 16, which covers most of El Paso County. The Industry Day event will provide an opportunity for small businesses, subcontractors, suppliers, and construction professionals to meet the three shortlisted teams competing for the primary project contract.
