South Sam Houston Parkway & State Highway 288 Interchange

Project Description:

Paradigm Consultants, Inc. was retained by Texas Department of Transportation to provide geotechnical engineering services for the interchange project.

These services were completed under budget. The end product will allow egress from Beltway 8 to either Houston to the north or Lake Jackson to the south and entrance from State Highway 288 directly on to the Beltway. Final design of the $65 million project will be performed in-house by TxDOT. Construction began in 2008 and required approximately 30 months for completion. The interchange improved mobility for the 37,400 vehicles traveling this intersection each day. This time-constrained project was completed 24% under budget.
