IRVING, Texas - Fluor Corporation (NYSE: FLR) today joined officials from the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), local leaders and community members to celebrate the groundbreaking of the State Highway 6 (SH-6) expansion project in Bryan/College Station, Texas.
The project, awarded to Fluor’s Infrastructure business earlier this year, marks a significant milestone in improving mobility and safety along one of the region’s most critical transportation corridors. The 12-mile stretch of SH-6 will be reconstructed and widened from two to three lanes in each direction, enhancing capacity for commuters, freight and emergency evacuation routes.
“This groundbreaking signifies the start of an exciting expansion of SH-6 that will boost traffic capacity, strengthen regional connectivity and create a safer, more efficient route for everyone,” said Shawn West, President of Fluor’s Infrastructure business. “We are proud to partner with TxDOT once again to deliver an infrastructure project that supports Texas’ continued growth and prosperity.”
As part of the Texas Triangle, SH-6 serves as a vital north-south artery for Bryan/College Station, Texas A&M University and Brazos County. It is also a key component of the Texas Highway Freight Network, the Texas Highway Trunk System and a designated Hurricane Evacuation Route.
Construction is expected to be completed by the end of 2030.
