A $1.6-billion project to revitalize the convergence of three major highways in Southern Tarrant County has been awarded to a joint-venture partnership of Kiewit Infrastructure South Co. and Austin Bridge & Road.
The Texas Dept. of Transportation (TxDOT) tapped joint venture South-Point Constructors for the design build and maintenance contracts in November and the contract was signed earlier this year. The project, known as the Southeast Connector, is slated for completion in 2027. It represents the largest investment in transportation infrastructure in the history of TxDOT’s Fort Worth district.
