Sundt Delivering Texas Project More than a Month Ahead of Schedule

Sundt Construction reached substantial completion last month on U.S. Highway 84 and bridge reconstruction project near Abilene, the latest of several heavy civil jobs finished in Texas.

Work included demolition and reconstruction of a 530-foot bridge over Union Pacific Railroad tracks, reconstruction of U.S. 84 and new lighting and roadway barrier improvements. The U.S. 84 project included around half a mile of roadway that was fully reconstructed and installation of 40,000 cubic yards of embankment used to bring the grade up to match the finish slab elevation of the new bridge, which was built by Sundt’s Concrete Division.

Despite weather issues including rain totals that once measured 8 inches in 48 hours, the team reached substantial completion 33 working days ahead of schedule. Work began last May and will be completed in mid-February. The team received 100 percent of the Texas Department of Transportation’s No Excuse Incentive built into the contract for early substantial completion.
