Balfour Beatty, the international infrastructure group, today announces that it has been awarded a $889 million (£670 million) contract by the Texas Department of Transportation to reconstruct part of Interstate 30 (I-30) through Dallas in Texas.
Balfour Beatty will reconstruct a 3.7-kilometre (2.3-mile) section of the route on the east side of Dallas County. On completion, the scheme will increase the number of general-purpose lanes from six to 12 to improve congestion and connectivity across the city.
In addition, the company will construct nine crossings which will link I-30 with the Southern Gateway, the I-35E Lowest Stemmons and The Horseshoe, all of which Balfour Beatty has successfully completed on behalf of the Texas Department of Transportation over the last five years.
This latest contract award follows Balfour Beatty’s appointment by the Texas Department of Transportation to rebuild part of the Interstate 35 through Austin in Texas. The contract, valued at $746 million (£575 million) was awarded in November 2024.
Leo Quinn, Balfour Beatty Group Chief Executive, said:
“This contract award marks a significant milestone in Balfour Beatty’s 30-year partnership with the Texas Department of Transportation and our proven track record of successful project delivery.
“With decades of experience executing complex roadway projects in Dallas, and an in-depth understanding of the region’s infrastructure, we are uniquely positioned to deliver these essential improvements. This work will not only enhance connectivity and reduce congestion but also foster long-term economic growth and opportunity across the region.”
Balfour Beatty’s appointment to reconstruct part of I-30 is testament to its selective bidding approach, ensuring that the company leverages its strengths to work with long-term customers in the geographies in which it has proven expertise, strong teams and trusted supply chain partners. Preconstruction will commence in 2026 and is estimated to last five years until completion.
