SALT LAKE CITY (<\/strong>October 2024) \u2013 <\/strong>YESCO<\/a>, the 104-year-old company known for creating, repairing and maintaining internationally recognizable signs, announces it will begin the design, fabrication and installation of new signage, lighting and large-scale architectural steel structures on the Ocotillo Bridge in Gilbert, Arizona. Spanning over the future phases of Gilbert Regional Park, the project marks a significant addition to the visual landscape of the area, seamlessly blending functionality with the aesthetic appeal of the Ocotillo bridge built by Sundt Construction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The $112 million dollar project will be funded by voter approved transportation bonds and will significantly improve public safety response times and reduce traffic congestion in the area.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gilbert Regional Park sign will feature two sets of illuminated pan channel letters and cabinets, which not only will ensure longevity but also enhance the visual impact, particularly at night. In designing the 44-foot-long sign, YESCO meticulously considered the bridge\u2019s architecture, ensuring the sign complements the surrounding environment while standing out as a distinctive landmark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most prominent feature of the project will include four massive steel structures, each measuring approximately 55 feet by 60 feet. These integrated shade structures each consist of seven separate steel \u201cleaf-like\u201d components, measuring 7 feet by 24 feet, creating an impressive, nature-inspired design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As part of the installation, YESCO will also provide and install RGBW programmable lighting on the bridge arches, underside and columns. This dynamic lighting will add a captivating visual element, enhancing both safety and aesthetics during nighttime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

YESCO has proven to be a valuable partner, delivering exceptional design and constructability reviews during the project’s preconstruction phase, solidifying its reputation as one of the best in the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be starting work on this important project which will provide a much-needed arterial connection and bring the town\u2019s long awaited vision to life,\u201d said Sundt vice president and business development manager Jeff Hamilton.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIncorporating cutting-edge technology into a timeless design, the Gilbert Regional Park sign will be a beacon that honors Gilbert\u2019s past while lighting the way for its future,\u201d said Jeff Young, executive vice president, YESCO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
