Tanger Outlets Sinkhole Repair

After an unusually large amount of rain last year a large sinkhole formed in the middle of the Tanger Outlets shopping center entrance.  Greene Construction responded immediately by constructing a temporary entrance.  After over a year we have finished the demolition of the old metal culvert and installation of the new concrete culvert.  This project required blocking and pumping of the entire North Fork of the New river, excavation of over 40,000 yards of soil, the setting and placing of a larger concrete culvert, and one very large crane.  All this work was performed while the shopping center remained fully operational.
