Sundt Connections

Stop and Go will be Over and Out in Corsicana

January 13, 2016

KP2_0084

Not everything is bigger in Texas. The town of Corsicana has around 24,000 residents and an idyllic downtown lined with shops, restaurants and stop lights.

Oh, yes, and 18-wheelers passing through town hauling goods through North Texas. Lots of them stopping and going through a congested passage every day.

Fortunately, relief is on its way. Sundt has been selected to construct a Texas Department of Transportation relief route for State Highway 31, the main route through downtown. Work on the $106 million heavy civil project begins this summer.

The 12-mile four-lane road will improve mobility by allowing motorists to bypass Corsicana to the south, helping enhance safety and traffic flow. Big rigs using State Highway 31 every day have no other option than to travel through downtown Corsicana.

The project also includes 2 miles of reconstruction on Interstate 45. The relief route goes under the interstate at one point.

“The project strengthens our position in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, which we consider to be one of the strongest and most stable local markets for heavy construction in the United States,” said Sundt Area Manager Abel Ortiz.

Sundt has more than 45 years and nearly $2 billion of project work throughout Texas.
