Ciorba Group

Ciorba Group ventures to Texas! As we continue to expand our horizons we now have a presence in the thriving Houston market.

We have no doubt that Rami's leadership and expertise will contribute to the continued success of our organization while also fostering strong new relationships with local clients and partners. Stay tuned for updates on our latest projects and initiatives in the Houston area.

We’re thrilled to announce that the Village of Buffalo Grove and Ciorba Group will receive the APWA Chicago Metro Chapter Public Works Project of the Year Award in the category Environment – Less than $5M for the Cambridge on the Lake Lift Station Reconstruction Project at the Awards Luncheon Thursday March 16th. This award recognizes our team’s outstanding work consolidating two lift stations into one new station, providing capital improvements such as upgraded detention facilities, and enhancing public park spaces while creating local water and sewer benefits. We’re honored to receive this award and proud of our team’s dedication to delivering exceptional engineering solutions.

This past weekend Ciorba Group competed in the ACEC IL 3x3 Basketball Tournament, and we’re proud to have gone 2 wins and 2 losses. But more than just having fun on the court, we’re glad to have supported Project SYNCERE (Supporting Youth Needs with Core Engineering Research Experiments) through tournament proceeds to prepare minds and create pathways for underrepresented and disadvantaged students to pursue careers in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. We are so proud of AJ Crosley, Alex Omelanczuk, and Johnathan Morris for representing our team. It was a tough competition, but we can’t wait for next year!

Don’t miss Ciorba Group's Brett Sauter, PE, SE and Indiana Department of Transportation LaPorte District’s Andrew Borden’s presentation entitled “Beauty and the Bridge” at 2023 Purdue Road School Transportation Conference and Expo 4:00 PM in room STEW 206 on March 14th. Their presentation will discuss the US 20/US 31 interchange project just south of South Bend. Each day over 65,000 vehicles utilize the interchange and in recent years, the bridge has been a victim of truck hits due to low vertical clearance over US 31. Ciorba was tasked with reconstructing the bridge while improving the vertical clearance, a challenging task due to the heavy traffic and tight interchange configuration. The design required an analysis of possible options to improve the clearance by over 1’ including lowering US 31, raising US 20 or a combination. To make matters even more challenging, construction efforts had to be coordinated with the City of South Bend and the Notre Dame football schedule, which attracts nearly 100,000 people each home game. Don't miss this informative presentation on innovative design and careful planning in the face of complex transportation challenges.

Ciorba Group is excited to share that the Brookfield Avenue Bridge is open! The original bridge was built in October 1916 and in 2014 the Village Board approved to begin development on preliminary engineering plans for its replacement. After several years of design and construction, the Ribbon Ceremony to open the new bridge was held December 9, 2022. The new bridge features total replacement including a precast prestressed concrete I-beam superstructure and the reconstruction of adjacent HMA pavement, curb and gutter, sidewalk, and underground utilities. The new bridge also features decorative lighting columns, a beautiful lookout over Salt Creek, and a widened pedestrian walking path. Ciorba Group provided preliminary, final design and construction engineering services. Great job team!

This is the time of year to relax, eat, and be thankful for those around us. The Ciorba Group Team wishes you and your family a joyous holiday! Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Veterans Day! On this day, and all other days of the year, we humbly thank our brave veterans for their service and sacrifice. We are forever grateful for your courage and dedication in protecting our nation.
