The project is part of the general improvements being undertaken by the department along the SH 36 corridor.

The SH 36 corridor serves the Port of Freeport on the Texas coast.

The road upgrade will enhance the carrying capacity of this hurricane evacuation route, while bolstering the mobility and safety for the area’s population.

With the latest contract, Webber is currently working on 53 projects in four US states – in Texas, Georgia, Virginia and North Carolina.

Recently, Webber secured a contract worth over €278m to expand a highway in North Carolina.

It also won a contract worth €332m to construct four highways in Texas – at Kaufman, Denton, Collin and Comal counties.

Webber, in partnership with Ferrovial Construction, is working on the I-35 project in San Antonio, worth $1.5bn.
