Beginning at IH-35 in Georgetown, this toll road bypasses the Austin area to the East and ends at the intersection of Highway 183 in Mustang Ridge. P.E. Structural Consultants, Inc. assisted Lone Star Infrastructure in the Proposal Phase, providing preliminary design and developing the Aesthetic Design Guidelines for Structures in this landmark turnpike project encompassing approximately 50 miles of new toll road. As a subconsultant to DMJM+Harris, PESC continued to contribute as a major component of the Structures Design Team in the aesthetic design of bridges, retaining wall and sign structures, in the structural design of approximately half of the 118 bridges in Segments 1 through 4 of the project, and in the structural design of all the Mainlane and Ramp Toll Plaza facilities.
