Milwaukee School of Engineering president Hermann Viets says construction will soon begin on a new project after a large piece of land is made available. Speaking to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, there are a few minor tasks that need to be completed before work can start in earnest.

When all's said and done, Viets hopes the project will be completed by the end of the year. Current plans are to build a 780-space parking facility and a new collegiate soccer field. A coffee shop is likely to be included at the ground level of the parking lot as well.

With the number of construction jobs on the rise, those hoping to fulfill their contracts as quickly as possible will want to ensure they have the bulldozers, cranes and other heavy equipment necessary. IronPlanet's auctions make finding used construction equipment easy.

Motor graders are commonly used for parking lots and soccer fields. IronPlanet sells a variety of graders including Caterpillar, Komatsu, Volvo, Fiat Allis, John Deere, and Gehl. At IronPlanet, motor graders are inspected and guaranteed, so buyers can bid with confidence.
