Our Banks team and Quality Control Division Manager Randy Funderburg are so proud of Philip Brooks getting the Inertial Profiler Certification through NCAT

Reminiscing on last Saturday's Coastal Crisis Chaplaincy - Touch A Truck Event at the Charleston Fire Museum.

When schools are back in session, visiting our community and getting to talk with them about what we do is one of our teams favorite things to do.

In the photos, you can see Transportation Superintendent Angelo Todd and Truck Driver Ms. Mary Jensen spending time at the event, representing what this industry is all about, and supporting the Coastal Crisis Chaplaincy's purpose of providing comfort and counsel to first responders, their families and the victims of crisis.

This is Kadian Downer. 💬 He’s a paving technician on one of our night crews. Kadian’s originally from Jamaica and moved to the U.S. in 2013. He lived in New Orleans for a while but then came to SC and liked it. He has one child and when he isn’t working at night, he’s installing privacy fences.

He’s been on our Banks team since March of this year, and along with liking SC so far, he likes working with our Banks team too.

Something fun about Kadian is that he dressed up as the Mask for Halloween this year - you know, that character Jim Carrey played. 🎭

Thanks for choosing Banks, Kadian! We’re thankful to have you on the team.

Ariat Dirt World Summit Year 2: ✅

It was another great visit to Texas for our second year attending the Summit. And the speakers left us with some fresh ideas, reflection, and excitement for what continues to be in store for our team and our industry.

Thanks, Buildwitt team, and everyone involved, for the opportunity. As always, it was a fantastic event and we’re excited for #TheWayForwardTogether.

When the lights go down, the Red Crew paves. 💪 The Red Crew placing the 2nd lift of base at the tie-in to US17A on the Berlin G. Myers Project. Tonight, they’re in the median in front of Summerville Skate Park, pushing the Berlin G. Myers Project closer to the finish line. 🌙🔥

It’s incredible to see how far this site has come since we first broke ground. Huge shoutout to the teams putting in the work every single day to make it happen.

Share Your Knowledge. In this video, Equipment Operator Brandon Eaddy is learning how to operate the motor grader - which some might say is one of the hardest pieces of machinery to master.

Everyone’s time to learn varies - but it’s awesome to see the patience and time some Superintendents like Adam Casselman take to pass on their skills to team members like Brandon. Great work! And great job Brandon.
