Beltway 8 Northeast Construction Inspection Services for the Harris County Toll Road Authority
Binkley & Barfield, Inc. was recently awarded a project to perform construction inspection services on the Sam Houston Tollway Northeast section by the Harris County Toll Road Authority (HCTRA). This new tollway will consist of mainlanes, overpass bridges and all electronic tolling equipment.
BBI field inspectors are responsible for the construction inspection of the following:
- underground utility and storm sewers
- paving
- electronic tolling equipment
- conduit
- overhead guide sign structures
- bridges
- retaining walls
- pavement markings
- illumination and earthwork.
Using vehicles meeting HCTRA's high-level safety standards, the inspectors will utilize HCTRA's newly developed Capital Projects Management Tracking System (CAPTRAC) database to enter their inspection reports for daily tracking. Inspectors are pulling night duty as the contractor has moved to a fast track 24 hr schedule to meet project incentives.
