This field trip will deepdive, literally, 200 hundred feet into the tunneling project in Austin that is being excavated for the I-35 Capital Express Central Project.
Our host, Ross Webb, VP Operations-Underground Division, SAK Construction LLC. will discuss the project and we will tour the tunnel and the boring equipment. A brief safety training will be held on-site, and don't forget your PPE (closed toe shoes, pants, hi-vis vest, safety glasses, and hard hat).
