Becoming a member of the SWCPA, Guy F. Atkinson Construction joins the trade organization for the concrete paving industry in California and Nevada. SWCPA members are the contractors who build the concrete highways, roadways, and airports; the materials companies that supply the cement, aggregates, and other materials that go into the concrete and the pavements; the engineering firms that design the roadways, highways, and airports; as well as the testing labs, admix suppliers, and equipment manufacturers who provide essential support to the concrete pavement industry.
“We’re excited about the Atkinson team joining forces with SWCPA on the many concrete pavement initiatives we have underway in California,” says Charles Stuart, Executive Director of the SWCPA. “Atkinson has delivered exceptional concrete highway pavements most recently on SR 14, I-5, SR 91, and I-15.

SWCPA is a regional affiliate chapter of the American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA). SWCPA sees the use of concrete pavement as essential for the future wellbeing of our transportation infrastructure. Great efficiencies – in terms of economic, social, and environmental value – can be gained through the increased use of long-lasting, low-maintenance pavements. SWCPA is committed to improving the concrete pavement industry through a robust education program, advocacy, technical services, and member support. Recently, due to the strong support and guidance of our members, SWCPA has partnered with Caltrans and Nevada DOT to improve concrete pavement project outcomes through research, pilot projects, revisions to the construction standards, and education.
