Practices
Keeping critical tollway improvements on track for Houston
The Harris County Toll Road Authority (HCTRA) needed support to manage regional mobility upgrades on the Hardy Toll Road and Sam Houston Tollway, where aging infrastructure, growing capacity needs and strict schedules required expert oversight. CDM Smith provided CEI services to help HCTRA keep construction on track and maintain mobility.
Supporting major infrastructure upgrades
The team oversaw eight new tolled exit and entrance ramps and computerized active traffic management systems.
Incorporating intelligent tolling
CDM Smith’s experts provided oversight and construction expertise for upgrades made to the Sam Houston Tollway.
Enhancing long-term asset health
Consistent monitoring and inspection helped ensure that new systems and widened corridors remain reliable.
CDM Smith’s CEI support helped HCTRA widen key lanes, add new tolled access points, install active traffic management systems and enhance safety features. As HCTRA noted, “By providing these services, CDM Smith is helping HCTRA maintain good operating condition of its infrastructure for years to come.”
