In July2017, Zachry was awarded the contract to expand Mayhill Road on the east side of Denton, TX from a two-lane asphalt road to a four-lane divided concrete road. Above-and below-ground utilities along the busy 3.5-mile strip proved to be themainchallenge throughout this project.

As the ZCC team built bridges, crews also installed various reinforced concrete pipesfor storm drainage, constructed retaining walls and placed 12” concrete pavement.During this work,they had to contend with delays in the removal of various city and franchise utilities, including gas, fiber optic and power lines.Project Manager Chris Zwinggiand his team showed great flexibility as they partnered to redesign or relocate to keep the job on schedule for substantial completion.

As this region continues to grow, countless drivers will travel more safely as they enjoy the newly paved lanes and improved intersections of Mayhill Road.
