The 10,000 LF Taxiway L project directly supports space and technology industries within the growing Houston Spaceport—the 4th largest licensed Spaceport in the US. The scope of work includes the construction of a parallel taxiway to provide access to Runways 4-22 and 35L. This project continues our success with Texas Sterling, Banicki, Kimley-Horn and HAS:
- Five pursuits managed by Mission Critical with Texas Sterling-Banicki JV + Kimley-Horn;
- Four alternative delivery projects shortlisted or won at HAS in the past five years; and
- Second project success at EFD. Mission Critical and the joint venture partners won the EFD Phase 1 Infrastructure Project in 2017.
