Balfour Beatty Infrastructure, Inc.

Dallas North Tollway

Texas, faced with heavy traffic demands, is continually expanding and improving its toll road system. As part of this infrastructure improvement effort, Balfour Beatty Infrastructure, Inc. performed a 1.5 mile extension of the Dallas North Tollway from north of Legacy Drive to south of the Gaylord Parkway.

Owner:

North Texas Turnpike Authority

Location:

Dallas, Texas

Contract Value:

$30.9 million

The extension included a new three-level interchange, six-lane roadway, drainage structures, ramps, bridges and retaining walls. Balfour Beatty Infrastructure self-performed the majority of the work, subcontracting only specialized items such as water and gas utility installation, electrical systems and signage.

In recognition of an outstanding contribution to the public infrastructure, this project received the 2005 Project of the Year for a transportation project over 10 million. The award was presented by the Texas Chapter of the American Public Works Association.
