A joint venture between Walsh Construction and Turner will build a new medical center for the Department of Veterans Affairs under a multi-year, $840.1 million firm-fixed-price contract from the Army Corps of Engineers.

Walsh-Turner JV will conduct construction work in Louisville, Kentucky, and is expected to complete the project by Nov. 19, 2025, the Department of Defense said Tuesday.

USACE received two bids for the contract and it obligated the full contract amount to Walsh-Turner JV from VA’s fiscal 2016, 2017, 2020 and 2021 construction and major projects funds at the time of the award.
