New Commission Approvals Will Put Contractors to Work The Texas Transportation Commission (TTC) recently approved $648 million for 52 highway improvements and other transportation facility projects, like the I-30 reconstruction in Texarkana, which is expected to be completed later this year.

By Irwin Rapoport CEG CORRESPONDENT

With increasing budgets for transportation and infrastructure projects, the Texas Transportation Commission (TTC) continues to issue new announcements for construction projects to expand and upgrade the

state's transportation infrastructures which is being expanded as more and more people and businesses flock to Texas. The TTC approved a considerable number of projects, worth more than $750 million. The approval included: • Approximately $648 million for 52

highway improvements and other transportation facility projects; • Approximately $89 million for 63 routine maintenance projects; • A total of $5.9 million for five capital improvement projects for airport development and improvement; • A total of $10.8 million State

Infrastructure Bank loan to Sardis Lone Elm Water Supply Company for utility relocation near FM 664 in Ellis County. These projects will provide a considerable amount of work for small, medium and large-sized general contractors and subcontracting firms. see CONTRACTORS page 8

Infrastructure Upgrades On Highways Save Texans $3B Commuters across Texas reaped time and cost savings valued at more than $3 billion, thanks to transportation improvements and pandemic-related trends that made their drives quicker than just a few years ago, according to a new report from the Texas A&M Transportation Institute (TTI). The report analyzed commuting trends and compared them to pre-pandemic levels in 2019. The study found that, while motorists drove more miles last year, roadway construction and expansion projects like those in TxDOT’s Texas Clear Lanes — a Gov. Greg Abbott initiative — helped make travel smoother and more efficient. The study, which converted time savings from smoother commutes into dollar values and coupled those benefits with average fuel cost savings, also found the most significant savings in the state’s biggest cities, included Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio. The findings are drawn from TTI’s legislatively mandated annual analysis, which measures traffic delays in more than 2,100 of the most congested road segments in the state. “It’s encouraging to see the impact our work is having on Texas roads throughout the state to help ease congestion,” TxDOT Executive Director Marc Williams said. “But our work isn’t done. As more and more people move to Texas, we need to keep moving forward with projects that address traffic congestion and improve safety in areas that need it most.” Roadbuilding continued at a brisk pace in recent years, highlighted by the $100 billion 2024 Unified Transportation Program (UTP) and TxDOT’s Texas Clear Lanes initiative. Through that effort, TxDOT has invested more than $32 billion to plan, construct and complete non-tolled projects in the state’s largest population centers since

The study, which converted time savings from smoother commutes into dollar values and coupled those benefits with average fuel cost savings, also found the most significant savings in the state’s biggest cities, included Austin, Dallas, Fort Worth, Houston and San Antonio.

The study found that, while motorists drove more miles last year, roadway construction and expansion projects like those in TxDOT’s Texas Clear Lanes — a Gov. Greg Abbott initiative — helped make travel smoother and more efficient.

The report analyzed commuting trends and compared them to pre-pandemic levels in 2019.

2015. Overall, 18 Texas Clear Lanes projects are now complete, 25 are under construction, and another 62 are planned. This annual study puts Houston’s West Loop atop the most congested list for the second consecutive year. Also in Houston, the Eastex Freeway comes in second place, followed by Dallas’ Woodall Rogers Freeway, Austin’s I-35 through downtown, and the Southwest Freeway in Houston. Nine of the 10 most congested road segments in the state were repeats from the year before. And in each of the last four years, at least 83 of the 100 most congested segments were concentrated in the four largest urban areas (Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Austin and San Antonio). “As we would expect, nearly all of the 100 most congested road segments are in the state’s largest urban areas,” Texas Transportation Institute Senior Research Scientist David Schrank said. “But a deeper look at the full listing clearly illustrates how congestion is not just a big city problem. Traffic delays impact our economy and our well-being no matter where we live.” Overall traffic delays statewide last year were up 7 percent over 2021 conditions. Even with last year’s increase, 2022 estimates of overall delay were still 23 percent lower than in 2019, a comparison even more noteworthy due to the fact overall traffic volume on roadways has increased 2 per ent compared to 2019. Truck delays, on the other hand, were up 15 percent over 2021 and 1 percent higher than three years before. As completed projects provide a more efficient rush hour, researchers also point to pandemic-related trends that have helped reduce roadway delays. Flexible workplace schedules continue to shape a new commuting standard. In addition, consumers are relying more on home delivery of goods.  (All photos courtesy of TxDOT.)

Officials Approve Next Phase of South Padre Island Project

The TTC also approved $89 million for 63 routine maintenance projects; $5.9 million for five capital improvement projects for airport development and improvement; and $10.8 million for utility relocation near FM 664 in Ellis County. CONTRACTORS from page 1

The state’s energy sector is also being upgraded and expanded. The Inside Scoop report highlighted TxDOT’s ongoing efforts in the state’s energy producing regions. Increases in funding have allowed TxDOT to plan for more transportation projects. “Prior to 2017, the 10-year plan Unified Transportation Program did not exceed $40 billion,” said Laura Butterbrod, a TXDOT PIO. “Today, the 2024 UTP totals more than $100 billion. Of that, $22.6 billion will go to fund transportation projects in the energy producing areas of Texas. Safety improvements will include additional passing lanes on two-lane highways, bridge enhancements, road widening and rehabilitating interchanges. The energy sector is vital to not only the Texas economy, but also the nation. Texas is number one in energy production. While challenges remain with safety, congestion and roadway preservation, TxDOT has been and will continue to respond to the needs of the energy sector and the citizens of Texas." South Padre Island In last December’s Inside Scoop: Texas Transportation Commission, a monthly

report issued by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), it was noted that the second South Padre Island causeway project is moving forward in development as the TTC added the future roadway — SH 104 — to the state highway system. The designation provides for additional funding sources to accelerate the development and construction of the new bridge and roadway to be built between FM 106 and Park Road 100 on South Padre Island. This is approval is crucial as it sets in motion the process of providing between $700 and $1 billion dollars to construct the causeway. “The commission action [on December 17] was an important first step for the planning, development and construction of the second causeway project,” said Texas Transportation Commissioner Alex Meade. “Like other projects around the state, if the second causeway project moves forward after the environmental review process, it will require a significant partnership between TxDOT and local entities, including the CCRMA and the Rio Grande Valley MPO. Local partners will need to participate in providing significant local funding along with TxDOT funding to fund this project.”

The 2024 Unified Transportation Program (UTP) totals more than $100 billion. Of that, $22.6 billion will go to fund transportation projects in the energy producing areas of Texas.

These projects will provide a considerable amount of work for small, medium and large-sized general contractors and subcontracting firms.

Cameron County and the TxDOT Pharr District requested the designation, with both entities continuously prioritizing the construction of a second causeway, which in addition to improving traffic flow, would also he very helpful in terms of hurricane evacuations and emergency operations. “I want to personally thank Governor Abbott, TxDOT Chairman Bruce Bugg and the members of the Transportation Commission along with TxDOT administration, our own Pharr District Office and the entire Rio Grande Valley delegation in Austin for supporting the transition of the SPI 2nd Causeway project onto a TxDOT On-System project,” said Cameron County Judge Eddie Treviño, Jr. TxDOT is the reviewing agency for the environmental document being prepared by the Cameron County Regional Mobility Authority (CCRMA). Environmental clearance is expected by fall of 2026, with construction possibly starting as early as 2029. The existing Queen Isabella Memorial Causeway, built in 1971, is the sole roadway connecting South Padre Island to Port Isabel. Back in September 2001, the causeway partially collapsed after being struck by a barge. Ray Pedraza, a public information officer

of TxDOT’s Pharr District, explained that the project’s cost will vary based on the ultimate design and letting date. “The best estimate is $700 million to $1 billion,” he said. “Key elements include environmental considerations, bridge structures and landing locations on both mainland and San Padre Island. The work will take approximately three years once construction starts.” Environmental concerns have to hammered out in terms of construction. “Coordination with various state and federal resource agencies will be required,” said Pedraza. “Seagrass, endangered animal species and human factors are some examples.” The causeway will have four lanes and be able to handle 40,000 vehicles daily. “However, these thresholds are often passed once construction is complete,” said Pesraza. “Level of service (congestion levels) break down after that.” In regards to the future of the existing causeway, Pedraza replied: “We will continue to maintain and evaluate the Queen Isabella Memorial Causeway in the future for possible replacement.”  CEG (All photos courtesy of TxDOT.)

The Winner Is...

TxDOT’s Atlanta District, Local Crew Win Seal Coat Honor

TxDOT photo

(L-R): 2023 TXAPA President Jason Exum, Texas A&M Transportation Institute Research Fellow Dr. Jon Epps, TxDOT Atlanta District Engineer Rebecca Wells, Missouri Petroleum Project Superintendent Jason Ingram, TxDOT Atlanta District Seal Coat Specialist Cody Fuller, TxDOT Atlanta District Director of Construction Kim Garner and TxDOT Chief Engineer Lance Simmons.

A Texas Department of Transportation project covering several counties in northeast Texas won top honors at the Texas Asphalt Pavement Association’s annual meeting in San Antonio. TxDOT’s Atlanta District, along with the contractor, Missouri Petroleum of Bullard, Texas, won the Region Four Dr. Jon A. Epps Quality Seal Coat Award for its district-wide seal coat project. Seal coating a highway is a process that involves placing a layer of hot asphalt over the old pavement and then covering it with crushed stone. The process prolongs the life of the roadway by preserving the pavement structure and improving skid resistance. Roadways receiving a seal coat in 2022 and stretching a minimum of five miles long were nominated by TxDOT districts across Texas. The roadways were then grouped into six regions for evaluation by a panel of judges, who selected winners in each region. Roadways evaluated in the Atlanta District included US 259 in Morris County, FM 1970 in Panola County and FM 49 in Upshur County. The Atlanta District includes Bowie, Camp, Cass, Harrison, Marion, Morris, Panola, Titus and Upshur Counties. “This is the third year we have won this award, which shows the commitment our district has to excellence,” said Atlanta District Director of Construction Kim Garner. “Roadways are evaluated on the quality of the roadway preparation prior to sealing, ride, performance of the seal coat, and appearance,” Garner said. TXAPA is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the advancement of the asphalt pavement industry. 

Thunder Creek Delivers Big Changes for Moffitt Services

The Thunder Creek units provide the advantage of the manufacturer’s proprietary 2-in-1 diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) system that provides a turnkey way of delivering DEF to the field while keeping it free of contaminants.

Moffitt Services — a Texas-based fuel and lubricants distributor committed to providing quality fuels, lubricants and service to customers that operate heavy equipment, generators, automotive and truck fleets — finds itself in the crosshairs of unique situations and opportunities. The greater Houston area remains the second-fastest growing metro market in the United States, which has entirely changed how construction takes place in the region. A byproduct of that has been an increase in demand for more agile

and fast-turn fuel deliveries — often in smaller quantities and spread across a more expansive footprint of the region. “In the Greater Houston area, development has been at a feverish pace — particularly residential development,” said Carl Kleimann, partner/owner of Moffitt Services. “They’re building subdivisions so fast that homes are being built before the power grid is even up and connected. In many cases, we’re making deliveries of 20, 30, 40 gallons a day to generators that are

powering the construction of a single-family home. We didn’t see this 10 or 15 years ago. “We didn't even see this five years ago,” he added. “It’s a very small delivery and it requires a lot of efficiency to do it cost effectively. It’s very important, because this is many of our customers’ livelihood. If they didn’t have a generator, they might have to wait for another year to be able to start that development. We’ve needed to develop a different set of skills around productivity and efficiency and Thunder Creek helped us meet

this challenge.” The company, founded in 1947, originally focused on delivering fuel in large volumes, but has taken these unique market challenges head-on with the help of Thunder Creek Equipment and its Multi-Tank Trailers and medium-duty trucks equipped with Thunder Creek’s Multi-Tank Upfit. This has been a significant shift the company’s approach to fleet management, ownership and execution. Both Thunder Creek solutions — capable of carrying up to 920 gal. of diesel in a platform that does not require a HAZMAT endorsement — are significantly smaller than the typical 4-5,000 gal. fuel haulers the company typically deployed. Those larger rigs are still critical to the business, but the diversification in style and size of vehicle has opened up new opportunities. “Not only do we need to service generators on busy construction sites, but we also sell to customers who have standby generators,” Kleimann said. “Any hotel greater than three stories, office buildings of any size are required to have standby power. In many cases, those generators may be in a parking garage, or they may be located near a dock or an area where it's just not practical to get a 45- or 50,000-pound bobtail. The Thunder Creek trucks and trailers give us a really good solution for this. “It’s the same in these growing subdivisions developments,” he added. “In many cases, the roads and the infrastructure are still being developed and our customers would much rather have a pickup pulling a see MOFFITT page 16

Thunder Creek Helps Moffitt Meet Productivity Challenges MOFFITT from page 14

Thunder Creek trailer or a Thunder Creek truck going through that development than a [much larger truck].” Crafting a More Efficient Fuel Delivery Platform The decision to add Thunder Creek MultiTank Upfit trucks and Thunder Creek MultiTank Trailers to the Moffitt Services fleet became a situation of necessity to maximize these unique opportunities. The company now has 20 different Thunder Creek units spread throughout Texas serving customers and jobsites of all sizes. “We were growing faster than we could really acquire trucks or bobtails and commercial drivers,” Kleimann shares. “We came across the team at Thunder Creek and suddenly we were looking at a very interesting opportunity. These pieces of equipment really do play an important role for us, particularly in our fast turnaround, same day service environment.” The Thunder Creek Multi-Tank Upfit is currently compatible with a number of available medium-duty truck chassis. It features six independent, 115-gal. diesel tanks that feed a diesel pump at the rear of the truck. Options include a variety of meters for measuring, security and tracking, numerous reel options and lengths, and a two-stage fuel filter system (10- and 4-micron filter) to ensure greater fuel quality. Because the independent 115-gal. tanks are only tied together when each tank is opened up by the manifold at the rear of the truck, drivers can legally transport 920 gallons of diesel without a CDL or HAZMAT endorsement. Moffitt Services also relies on a fleet of Thunder Creek Multi-Tank Trailers — the original industry solution for transporting bulk diesel without a CDL or HAZMAT (depending on the size and weight combina-

tion of the truck and trailer). These trailers are built to maintain a low profile and are configured to provide optimal balance and a smooth ride at highway speeds, as well as in the most rugged off-highway conditions. Each trailer can be complemented with a 100-gal. two-in-one DEF system and a utility box that allows its owner to customize the back end with greasing systems, welders, generators, air compressors and more. Between a challenging labor market, fluctuating demand volumes and an everexpanding footprint, the ability to have these units driven/operated by drivers who do not have a CDL or HAZMAT endorsements has provided a significant business advantage. From a fleet management perspective, it’s also significantly more practical to have the Thunder Creek units on standby than much

larger, more expensive vehicles. “Having the availability of the multi-tank units, the MTT 920s, gives us the ability to ramp up quickly,” said Kleimann. “In the event of a disaster or some type of event on peak summer days when we're already at our busiest, the trailers allow us to react faster. There's just not a better way to move product quickly. The other option is having $350,000 bobtails parked and not enough commercial drivers to operate them. It's really a no-brainer.” The Thunder Creek units also provide another advantage: the manufacturer’s proprietary 2in-1 diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) system that provides a turnkey way of delivering DEF to the field while keeping it free of contaminants. “The Thunder Creeks have a great DEF dispensing system,” said Kleimann. “It’s very difficult to find bobtails equipped with

a good diesel exhaust fluid system. Thunder Creek's done a great job with this.” Taking all of these factors into consideration, the addition and deployment of these unique fuel delivery systems into the Moffitt fleet has helped the company stay true to its most critical commitment to its customers: trust, speed of service and dependability. “We try to focus on those industries, those businesses, and those environments where failure is not an option, or at a minimum is very expensive,” explains Kleimann. “If you run out of fuel on a job with 15 or 20 pieces of equipment, that can be very costly, and our job is to make sure that doesn't happen, and we take that job seriously. We are open all the time. The company never stops, it never sleeps. We are always ready.  (All photos courtesy of Moffitt.)

TxDOT Creates Task Force to Address Roundabout Needs TxDOT is looking to build more roundabout intersections to increase safety on Texas roads. There are approximately 500 across the state and more are coming. Instead of traffic signals, roundabouts allow traffic to circulate (literally — counterclockwise) using only yield signs. The Federal Highway Administration calls them a “proven safety countermeasure” because they substantially reduce crashes that result in serious injuries or death. According to a National Academy of Sciences study, roundabouts lead to a more than 90 percent reduction in fatalities, 76 percent reduction in injuries, 35 percent reduction in all crashes, and the slower speeds at roundabouts are also usually safer for pedestrians. TxDOT Deputy Executive Director Brandye Hendrickson is the executive sponsor of a new roundabout task force at TxDOT and supported the creation of a new position to help the department understand and implement more so Texas can realize their benefits. “Elevating our roundabouts culture and competency is going to be helpful to helping advance more projects and getting them

built,” Hendrickson said. From 2017-2019, Hendrickson served as acting administrator of the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). During that term, she helped found National Roundabouts Week, which provides a time every year for organizations across the country to promote roundabouts. In 2023, National #RoundaboutsWeek is Sept. 18 to 22. “There was a lot of enthusiasm for roundabouts and other alternative intersection designs across the country and thought we should have a campaign that would bring awareness to these great safety benefits,” Hendrickson said. How do they lead to an overwhelming reduction in fatal and severe injury crashes? They essentially eliminate the most dangerous types of intersection crashes — the Tbone collision. They also lower speeds at the intersection to just 15 to 30 mph, so when crashes do happen, they are less severe. Hendrickson said roundabouts are “a way of life” where she comes from in Indiana, where she saw firsthand what roundabouts can provide for drivers. “Getting the chance to drive roundabouts in the communities where I live and the communities I serve really opened my eyes

to the safety impacts and benefits that come along with innovative intersections,” Hendrickson said. Roundabouts also save money in the long run and provide resiliency benefits in a power outage—no traffic signals are powered—and reduce pollution because they lead to fewer idling vehicles. They also often require less paving and maintenance, since the center island is not used by vehicles. Nevertheless, a lot of drivers more accustomed to traffic signals may be nervous about how to navigate roundabouts. So here are some tips for the next time you enter one: Slow Down If there’s more than one lane, use the left lane to turn left, the right lane to turn right and all lanes to go through, unless directed otherwise by signs and pavement markings. Drivers can use the following tactics while navigating through potential new roundabouts: • Yield to pedestrians and bicyclists; •Yield at the entry to circulating traffic; • Stay in your lane within the roundabout and use your right turn signal to indicate your intention to exit. • Always assume trucks need all available

space — don’t pass them. Many drivers also may think roundabouts can be more dangerous, but studies show they provide major safety benefits. Here are a few more myths about roundabouts: • Roundabouts can’t handle a lot of traffic — roundabouts can actually handle upwards of 20,000 cars a day at a single lane roundabout and upwards of 50,000 cars a day at a multilane roundabout. At higher traffic volumes, roundabouts often prove to be nearly as efficient as traffic signals; • Roundabouts can’t handle big trucks – almost all modern roundabouts are designed to handle standard semi-trucks, buses, fire trucks, etc; • Roundabouts only belong in urban areas – roundabouts at rural intersections provide the same safety benefits as they do at urban intersections, and often provide even more benefit due to higher speeds found in rural situations. Roundabouts can be designed to accommodate rural vehicles such as farm equipment, large trucks, horse trailers, etc. They are often appreciated by communities after they’re installed because people notice the traffic-calming effects -- especially not having to wait at red lights in the middle of nowhere. 
