Exciting progress is underway as we advance the Huntsville Northern Bypass project! Our team is moving an impressive 675,000 cubic yards of material. In addition, we’re installing 18,845 linear feet of storm drainage, all contributing to this transformative infrastructure development spanning over 3 miles. This project isn’t just about moving materials—it's about enhancing the community’s connectivity and infrastructure. We're making significant improvements, including grading and drainage, asphalt paving, curb and gutter installation, new signalization, and box culverts. We are on track for a successful completion and thank you for trusting us to build Roads Worth Driving.?

We invite you to share this message and help us make a difference.
