TxDOT SH 130 Pavement Reconstruction Scheduling

Overview:

Precision Scheduling Consultants LLC proudly delivered CPM scheduling services for the TxDOT SH 130 Pavement Reconstruction project. This significant project spanned the highway between SH 45 and Interstate Highway 10, located east of San Marcos, Texas. With the objective to improve roadway safety and capacity, this initiative sought to reconstruct 38 different sections along a 40-mile stretch of highway. In total, the project involved a full-depth roadway reconstruction covering an impressive 30,900 linear feet.

The project’s scope included a thorough analysis and reconstruction of existing pavement, focusing on enhancing structural integrity and longevity. We developed a comprehensive schedule that outlined each phase of the reconstruction process while accounting for various engineering challenges. Additionally, we ensured our schedule integrated necessary safety measures and compliance with TxDOT standards.

Baseline Schedule Development

Initially, we created a robust baseline schedule steeped in industry best practices. This schedule became the project’s blueprint, featuring detailed timelines for each section of the reconstruction. Importantly, we implemented cost-loading techniques designed to give stakeholders clear insights into financial projections. By aligning project tasks with their corresponding costs, our schedule provided essential transparency and facilitated effective resource allocation.

Monthly Schedule Updates

Furthermore, we conducted monthly schedule updates throughout the project lifecycle. These updates allowed the project team to monitor progress effectively while adapting to unforeseen challenges. By analyzing emerging roadblocks, we quickly implemented strategic solutions to maintain momentum. Each month, we presented comprehensive reports that included updated timelines, cost estimates, and performance metrics, enabling informed decision-making.

Collaboration and Communication

Throughout the project, strong collaboration and communication played crucial roles. We worked closely with engineers, contractors, and TxDOT officials to ensure alignment with project goals. Regular meetings allowed us to address concerns promptly and share updates on progress. This collaborative approach fostered a team-oriented environment, ultimately leading to successful project execution.

Project Outcomes

As a result of diligent planning and effective communication, the TxDOT SH 130 Pavement Reconstruction project achieved its goals ahead of schedule and within budget. The upgraded roadway now provides better mobility and enhanced safety for motorists. Overall, this project stands as a testament to the successful partnership between Precision Scheduling Consultants LLC and TxDOT, showcasing our commitment to excellence in project controls and management.
