Doubling capacity on one of Texas's most congested roadways

The IH-35W corridor through Fort Worth included a section ranked as the most congested roadway in Texas, creating significant delays and safety concerns for drivers. The Texas Department of Transportation needed to rebuild and expand the corridor without simply shifting congestion elsewhere during construction, reconstructing existing lanes while adding new managed toll lanes in each direction across a 10-mile stretch.

Delivering a reconstruction of this scale meant coordinating scheduling and field oversight across a project split into two major sections, each with its own budget, timeline and construction sequencing, while keeping quality and safety consistent throughout.

We provided onsite project scheduling coordination, construction inspection and field oversight for the IH-35W reconstruction. Our team supported delivery across both program sections: the $1.4 billion south section (3A), completed in 2017 and the $244 million north section (3B), completed in 2018.

The IH-35W reconstruction doubled roadway capacity along a 10-mile stretch of one of the state's most congested corridors, reconstructing existing lanes and adding two managed toll lanes in each direction. With both program sections complete, the project has significantly reduced congestion for drivers traveling through Fort Worth.
