Company
Overview
Over five decades, it evolved into a powerhouse contractor known for major infrastructure projects like the ICC, I‑95 Springfield Interchange, Dulles Greenway widening, and sections of Fairfax County Parkway.
Specializing in design‑build, heavy civil, highway & bridge, utility infrastructure, site development, and public‑private partnerships, the firm self‑performs key phases to ensure safety, quality, and efficiency.
Operating divisions such as Shirley Underground and Metro Earthworks help tailor services from utility relocations to earthworks and deep foundations.
Now part of the Clark Construction family, the company carries forward a legacy of innovation and regional impact with each project.
Unusual fact: the company’s name honors its roots in the “Shirley Highway” project, reflecting a history deeply tied to the area’s transportation evolution.
