There’s a lot happening on the Oak Hill Parkway project. Water quality protection measures were put into place along the highway in state right of way, including several miles of silt fencing, rock filter dams and erosion control logs. These protection measures assist in treating stormwater runoff and limiting sediment from leaving active construction areas. “TxDOT and Colorado River Constructors (CRC) are committed to protecting the Edwards Aquifer during construction,” said Christiana Astarita, TxDOT project manager. “Installing these water quality best management practices are a priority as we get started with major work.”
