Amid the infrastructure renewal efforts in Sewickley, Pennsylvania, a vital infrastructure project is underway. One that not only reinforces the physical foundations of the community but also exemplifies the strength of industry partnerships and cutting-edge technology. 

Allison Park Contracting (APC), a leader in heavy highway construction, is spearheading this effort with the help of two powerful drilling rigs: the Comacchio MC15P and a newly acquired Comacchio MC22. Both machines were sourced through International Construction Equipment, Inc. (ICE®), a trusted partner known for delivering high-performance geotechnical solutions. 

The MC15P, with its 168 kW (225 HP) motor and agile mast articulation, is ideal for confined-space drilling; perfect for the tight urban and wooded conditions of Sewickley. Complementing it is the MC22, a versatile powerhouse capable of handling complex drilling techniques such as jet grouting, micro-pile installation, and deep soil stabilization. For this undertaking, the MC22 was used in tandem with a CAT excavator to stabilize slopes and drill deep foundations as part of a coordinated effort to reinforce the terrain and support long-term infrastructure resilience in the Sewickley area. 

To keep both rigs running smoothly under pressure, APC outfitted them with abrasion-resistant Hydrauli-Flex™ hose lines, engineered to handle high-flow demands while navigating the tight bends and sharp turns of the urban jobsite. 

This project is more than just a technical achievement. It plays a crucial role in enhancing the safety and longevity of local infrastructure, ensuring that bridges, roads, and underground utilities can serve the community for decades to come. The work supports not only transportation and commerce but also the daily lives of residents who rely on safe, reliable infrastructure. 

Notably, the collaboration between APC and ICE® has been instrumental in the project's success. By leveraging ICE®'s expertise in equipment selection and support, APC has been empowered to meet this project's demanding geotechnical requirements with confidence and efficiency. 

Together, they are laying the groundwork--literally and figuratively--for a stronger, more resilient Sewickley. ICE® extends its sincere thanks to Allison Park Contracting for their dedication to excellence and for placing their trust in us as their equipment partner. It's through teamwork like this that meaningful progress is made, not just in construction, but in the lives of those these projects serve. The Sewickley community has already expressed appreciation for the improvements underway, recognizing the long-term value of safer, more resilient infrastructure. Together, we're building more than foundations; we're building confidence in the future.
