IRVING, TX — Fluor Corporation announces that its infrastructure business has been awarded the construction contract for the State Highway 6 (SH 6) project in College Station, Texas, by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Fluor will recognize the $671 million bid-build contract in the first quarter of 2025.
“This award shows Fluor’s continued commitment to executing projects in Texas and builds on our long-standing partnership with TxDOT,” said Shawn West, President of Fluor’s Infrastructure business. “The SH 6 project is another step in our relationship with TxDOT as they work to enhance the state’s transportation demands in this rapidly expanding corridor.”
SH 6 is a vital north-south highway that serves as a major commuter route for Bryan, College Station, Texas A&M University, Brazos County, and the surrounding region. It is also part of the Texas Highway Freight Network, the Texas Highway Trunk System, and is a Hurricane Evacuation Route. Fluor will reconstruct and widen the 12-mile stretch of highway from two lanes to three in each direction.
Construction is scheduled to begin in summer 2025 with substantial completion anticipated in spring 2030.
