Parsons Corporation's stock increased following the award of design and construction oversight contracts for the John A. Blatnik Bridge replacement project, valued between $1.1 billion and $1.4 billion. The project, led by the Minnesota and Wisconsin Departments of Transportation, will see Parsons continue its involvement from preliminary engineering to the design-build phase.
