The holiday season is a time to foster a sense of togetherness, gratitude, and hope for the upcoming new year. For the past several years, the employees of Westbrook Associated Engineers, Inc. (WAE), have selected a cause in which they can contribute back to our local community. This year, with the guidance of the Spring Green Police Department and Kops for Kids, WAE and their employees contributed over 45 holiday gifts and four baskets of home essentials to four area families.

On behalf of Westbrook, warmest thoughts and best wishes for a wonderful holiday and a very happy new year!

 

Westbrook Associated Engineers, Inc. of Spring Green, WI, along with Central Segment Design Team members KL Engineering, Inc. and RA Smith, Inc., was awarded the Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s Excellence in Design Award for Best Consultant Structure Design.  Westbrook served as the structural design engineer for the two new I-39/90 Rock River bridges.

The $1.2 billion I-39/90 Expansion Project extends approximately 45 miles along Interstate 39/90 from the Illinois state line to the US 12/18 interchange near Madison.  The Rock River Bridge project involved reconstructing the existing I-39/90 northbound and southbound bridges over the Rock River from 2-lane structures with 5-foot shoulders to 3-lane structures with 12-foot shoulders, and the ability to expand to 4-lanes with minimal impacts. The new pier and abutment substructure units were designed and constructed to accommodate a future fourth lane on each bridge structure. This key feature added significant long-term value by allowing future widening of the bridges to be accomplished without additional environmental or construction impacts within the river corridor.

Westbrook Associated Engineers, Inc. is pleased to offer an annual scholarship to graduating high school students from local school districts.  Our desire is to support and encourage local students who are pursuing a civil engineering related career.

In 2017, Lindsey DeYoung, of Richland Center, was awarded the Westbrook scholarship.  This year, Westbrook is pleased to have Lindsey joining us for a Spring-Summer Co-operative Education opportunity (Co-op for short) through UW-Platteville.  The UWP Co-op program allows engineering students to earn two Credits while gaining valuable engineering experience on a semester assignment in a real-world engineering position.  We are happy to have Lindsey with us this semester, and we trust that the experience and knowledge she gains during this time will be valuable to her in the future.

“I was honored to receive the “Westbrook Associated Engineers’’ Scholarship as it was a blessing to be relieved of some of the financial burden due to my education. This has allowed me to devote additional time to my classes. I have also enjoyed working at Westbrook in their co-op program. The program has both challenged me and has allowed me to put what I have learned in to practice!  I am very thankful to the Westbrook team for making me feel so welcome and providing such an outstanding learning environment. It is truly an honor to learn under and work with this group of extremely talented professionals. “ – Lindsey DeYoung

Current high school seniors from local districts have until April 1 to submit their applications.
