UNSPSC 72141001: Highway and road new construction service

The building of new highways and roads owned by others

UNSPSC 72141001 Highway and road new construction service, a Commodity code, encompasses repair and reconstruction of road segments, intersection improvements, pavement work, and related infrastructure across state and local jurisdictions. State and local governments soliciting under this code include cities, counties, and state departments of transportation. Recent opportunities show municipalities (Draper City, Utah; City of Gallup, New Mexico; City of Brownsville, Texas), county governments (Williamson County and Dorchester County; Bernalillo County, New Mexico; Harris County and other Texas counties), and state transportation departments (Texas Department of Transportation) all posting work under or closely aligned with this code. The work ranges from localized retaining wall repairs and street resurfacing to multi-mile road reconstructions with complex utility coordination and drainage infrastructure. Solicitation types are predominantly ITB and IFB notices; the City of Brownsville posted an RFQ for design-build fiber infrastructure that does not align with the code's nominal scope.

Geographic activity concentrates heavily in Texas, with TxDOT posting approximately thirty state-let construction contracts for highway hazard elimination, bridge replacement, pavement resurfacing, turn-lane improvements, and traffic signal installation across districts statewide between July 9 and 10, 2026, all with August response deadlines. Significant recent activity also appears in Utah (Draper City, CIP2613, IFB due July 30, 2026, for Traverse Ridge Retaining Wall Repair), New Mexico (City of Gallup, ITB-2701, due July 28, 2026, for 930-foot block reconstruction of Ciniza Drive with engineer's estimate of $1,314,439.83), South Carolina (Dorchester County, IFB 2027-02, due August 18, 2026, for Old Spell Road paving and drainage), California (Orange County, due July 10, 2026, for asphalt and concrete maintenance), Oregon (Washington County, ITB 2026.060-ITB 116198, due July 29, 2026, estimated $110,000 for bridge railing retrofit), and Georgia (Gwinnett County, due July 30, 2026, for Ridge Road intersection improvements). Texas counties and municipalities dominate the recent-opportunity volume by count.
