Larry D. Smith Correctional Facility, Expansion #3

Project overview

In an effort to meet the high demand for jail beds in Riverside County, it was decided that additional land at the site of the Larry D. Smith Correctional Facility would be used for a 292-cell, 582-bed expansion. The project included the housing pod expansion, related support spaces, and a new central plant.

The Vanir team provided agency construction management services for the planning, design, and construction of the maximum security facility.
