Despite the difficulties of keeping work going amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the Texas Dept. of Transportation (TxDOT) has more than $24 billion worth of projects under construction at the moment—the largest amount in its history.
When completed in 2025, a nearly $120 million, 54-in. water line will move up to 75 million gallons per day of surface water from the Southeast Water Purification Plant to the city of Houston, as well as seven other cities and water authorities.
