Bethel, Alaska, February 22, 2018 – Arcadis is working with the Yukon-Kuskokwim Health Corporation (YKHC), a tribal health organization serving residents of Alaska’s Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta region, to provide project management and construction oversight services for a new advanced primary care health clinic and renovation of the existing hospital in Bethel, located in southwest Alaska.
The $300 million Dr. Paul John Calricaraq Project (PJCP) includes construction of a new 206,000-square-foot primary care clinic and acute care nursing unit, renovations to 85,500 square feet of the 1980s-era Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta Regional Hospital, and development of a 54-unit housing development intended for PJCP staff.
Kent Crandall, Arcadis project manager, spoke with Construction Equipment Guide about the project and the unique construction practices required in the frigid Alaskan climate.
