The $200 million Three Rivers Protection and Overflow Reduction Tunnel (3RP0R.T) is the primary element in the City of Fort Wayne's Consent Decree program known as Fort Wayne Tunnel Works. 3RPORT is the largest project undertaken in city history'. The 3RPORT project was successfully bid and awarded in 2017 and employed key strategies to complete the design and bid the project during a window between other major tunnel projects in the USA. Key strategies included early engagement, favorable bidding of contractors through information sharing, outreach, and one-on-one discussions. Other strategies included prequalification, accelerated design, closely monitoring tunnel construction activity, project lifecycle risk management: and actively coordinating design, program management, legal and specialty consultant teams.
