DALLAS, TX — Balfour Beatty announces that it has been awarded an $889 million contract by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to reconstruct part of Interstate 30 (I-30) through Dallas, Texas.
Balfour Beatty will reconstruct a 2.3-mile section of the route on the east side of Dallas County. On completion, the scheme will increase the number of general-purpose lanes from six to 12 to improve congestion and connectivity across the city.
In addition, the company will construct nine crossings that will link I-30 with the Southern Gateway, the I-35E Lowest Stemmons, and The Horseshoe, all of which Balfour Beatty has successfully completed on behalf of TxDOT over the last five years.
“This contract award marks a significant milestone in Balfour Beatty’s 30-year partnership with the Texas Department of Transportation and our proven track record of successful project delivery," said Leo Quinn, Balfour Beatty Group Chief Executive. “With decades of experience executing complex roadway projects in Dallas, and an in-depth understanding of the region’s infrastructure, we are uniquely positioned to deliver these essential improvements. This work will not only enhance connectivity and reduce congestion but also foster long-term economic growth and opportunity across the region.”
Preconstruction will commence in 2026 and is estimated to last five years until completion.
