Posted by jobtrio.com Staff on March 7th, 2010
March 7, 2010 - On Monday, the Federal government agreed to release $26 billion in stimulus funding for American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) road construction. It is expected that around 450 projects in Texas will directly benefit from the stimulus dollars. ARRA funds will help cover the $12 million in Central Texas highway projects awarded last month, which is welcome news to Waco contractors on the payroll.
Bastrop contractors will be glad to hear that a $4.8 million turning-lane project for F.M. 20 now has funding.

$3B Lake Michigan Wind Farm in the Works
Posted by jobtrio.com Staff on February 23rd, 2010
February 23, 2010 - The construction of a controversial wind farm is being discussed for Lake Michigan off the shore of Pentwater. The current proposal by the developer Skandia is for a $3 billion wind turbine facility. Though the project could mean hundreds of jobs for Big Rapids contractors and other area tradesmen, locals are against the idea of the turbines diminishing their lakefront tourism.
Skandia’s 100 square mile project is currently being revised to address home and business owner’s concerns. When construction finally moves forward, Cadillac contractors, among others, are expected to compete heavily for sub positions on the project.
