In September 2025, Diaz-Murphy & Associates (DMA) partnered with OHLA USA, Inc., the U.S. subsidiary of the global infrastructure group OHLA, to support two major Florida Turnpike projects. DMA provides construction materials testing (CMT) and quality assurance/quality control (QA/QC) oversight to ensure precision, reliability, and compliance throughout project execution.[Click here to read OHLA USA’s recent press release on its awarded Florida infrastructure projects.]
DMA’s collaboration with OHLA USA focuses exclusively on two Florida Turnpike initiatives commissioned by the Florida Department of Transportation (FDOT). These projects aim to enhance roadway capacity, improve traffic flow, and strengthen transportation safety across South Florida.
The first project involves a $100.6 million contract to widen the Turnpike Mainline (SR 91) from the Sawgrass Expressway to Glades Road in Broward and Palm Beach Counties. DMA supports OHLA USA by conducting comprehensive field and laboratory testing to verify the quality of materials used in asphalt paving, drainage, guardrails, signage, and other roadway components.
The second project supports additional Turnpike infrastructure improvements focused on modernization, operational efficiency, and long-term resilience. DMA’s role includes rigorous QA/QC and CMT services to validate compliance with FDOT performance specifications, ensuring that construction materials meet all safety and durability standards.
DMA’s partnership with OHLA USA demonstrates the firm’s ongoing commitment to delivering measurable value through scientific precision and engineering excellence. By integrating laboratory analysis, field inspections, and real-time reporting, DMA enables informed decision-making, minimizes project risk, and enhances construction efficiency.
Through this collaboration, DMA continues to play a vital role in advancing Florida’s transportation network while reinforcing its reputation as a trusted partner in public infrastructure development.
DMA applies advanced testing technologies, standardized CMT methodologies, and experienced field personnel to optimize infrastructure performance. The company’s focus on sustainability, smart infrastructure applications, and data-driven reporting supports FDOT’s mission to build safer, longer-lasting transportation systems.
These Turnpike projects illustrate DMA’s capacity to integrate technical rigor with innovation, ensuring that every stage of construction aligns with both engineering precision and regulatory compliance.
