The Work

At the CLC Outdoor Sports & Roundabout project, BERGER was brought on to complete full site development for the College of Lake County’s outdoor sports complex and roundabout at the main campus entrance.

Scope included installation of site utilities—storm, sanitary, and water—along with mass grading for the roundabout, baseball and softball fields, and foundation excavation for a new concession facility.

The project also featured 8,500 linear feet of underdrain across the athletic fields, supporting long-term performance and playability.

The Challenge

Located at the primary north entrance to campus, the CLC Outdoor Sports & Roundabout project came with a tight timeline to complete and reopen the roundabout to traffic.

With constant activity surrounding the site and unpredictable spring weather conditions, delays weren’t an option.

The team needed to stay flexible, adjust quickly, and keep progress moving—without compromising safety or quality.

The Result

On the CLC Outdoor Sports & Roundabout project, BERGER’s crews worked closely with the client to navigate challenges in real time—anticipating issues, adapting to conditions, and finding the best path forward at every stage.

By combining experienced crews, in-house equipment, and a solutions-oriented mindset, the team kept the project on track and progressing toward completion.

From utilities to grading, every piece came together through coordination, grit, and a shared commitment to getting it done right.
