The contractor, Austin Bridge & Road Services LP, was granted 1,033 working days to complete this project valued at more than $128 million. The target completion date for this work is April 2026.
This project will extend from one mile west of the I-30/FM 1903 intersection to .1 miles east of the Monty Stratton Parkway. The contractor will reconstruct and widen the existing four lanes of I-30 to six lanes; improve intersections at FM 1903, FM 1570, and Monte Stratton Parkway; and reconfigure ramps and widen the frontage roads to convert them to one-way traffic flow.
Work to convert frontage roads to one-way traffic has begun. Concrete barrier will be placed along portions of the frontage roads to aid in the construction of temporary on- and off-ramps at these intersections and to maintain access for travelers, officials said. Work has also begun at the Monte Stratton Parkway.
In early 2024 crews will begin constructing a new overpass at FM 1570, to realign the road on both sides of I-30. The contractor also anticipates beginning work at FM 1903 in early 2024. This bridge over I-30 will be lengthened and raised to improve intersection operations.
