Loop 360 Western Rock Cut
Georgetown, Texas
Constructed for the Texas Department of Transportation, this slope stabilization project addressed hazardous
rockfall conditions along State Loop 360 just north of the Pennybacker Bridge. The project included 50-foot-deep rock cuts, removal of approximately 140,000 cubic yards of limestone, installation of improved drainage channels with rock and concrete riprap, and new roadway striping to enhance long-term safety.
The Jordan Foster team developed an innovative traffic control plan that improved safety while maintaining traffic flow on
one of Austin’s busiest roadways. Unstable rock excavation adjacent to active lanes was completed during nighttime lane closures using specialized equipment, while close coordination with TxDOT and sound monitoring minimized impacts to the
traveling public.
