Arizona Tribune - Smith-Midland Producing $1.9M in Wall Systems for Virginia Beach Project

The Elbow Road improvements are designed to enhance traffic flow, roadway safety, and long-term corridor performance while reducing traffic noise impacts for nearby neighborhoods. Smith-Midland will be working with Archer Western Contractors on this project for the City of Virginia Beach. The project is slated to go through 2027.

A defining feature of the custom SoundWall is its highly specialized design, combining a distinctive aesthetic with a complex manufacturing scope. The panels incorporate a dual-texture finish, sand along the bottom and tree-branch along the top, requiring precise formwork and quality control to deliver consistent, high-quality results. The project, which widens Elbow road and includes bike paths and sound barrier, underscores Smith-Midland's role as a trusted infrastructure partner across Virginia and the Mid-Atlantic, providing proven precast solutions that support community needs while driving long-term value.

"This project reflects the type of infrastructure investment that supports both economic growth and community well-being," said Ashley Smith, President and Chief Executive Officer of Smith-Midland Corporation. "Our team is proud to contribute to improvements that enhance daily travel while also delivering architectural finishes that complement the surrounding environment. It's a strong example of how our specialized precast capabilities translate into long-term value for owners, contractors, and the communities they serve."

Smith-Midland's SoundWall system provides durable, low-maintenance noise mitigation with extensive architectural flexibility, allowing transportation agencies to balance performance, aesthetics, and lifecycle cost. The precast sound wall system will provide reduced highway noise in adjoining neighborhoods, while enabling accelerated installation and reduced on-site disruption.

Production is underway at Smith-Midland's Midland, Virginia facility, with deliveries scheduled to align with Archer Western Contractors' phased construction activities. The project adds to Smith-Midland's growing portfolio of transportation infrastructure work and supports continued backlog and revenue generation in the company's core precast operations.
