UNSPSC 95111603: Interstate highway or freeway or turnpike

A main route for travel or transportation between cities that passes through two or more states

UNSPSC 95111603 Interstate highway or freeway or turnpike is a Commodity code that captures state and local government procurement for physical infrastructure work on divided, limited-access highway corridors including reconstruction, widening, resurfacing, preventive maintenance, hazard elimination, bridge replacement, traffic signal and illumination installation, and utility coordination along interstate and high-capacity state routes. The code sees sustained activity across county transportation departments, state departments of transportation, transit authorities, and municipal public works offices procuring general construction services for projects valued from under $1 million to over $140 million. Work ranges from discrete intersection improvements and seal-coat maintenance to multi-mile highway widening, bridge construction, and shared-use path extensions; contracts typically demand FDOT or TxDOT prequalification, prevailing wage compliance where federally funded, comprehensive bonding and insurance, and extended construction schedules measured in months to years with liquidated damages for delays.

Recent activity concentrates in Texas and Florida, with secondary volume in Georgia and South Carolina. Texas Department of Transportation posted approximately thirty state let construction contracts in early October 2026 across multiple districts—ranging from preventive maintenance and seal coat work in the Panhandle and South Plains to major highway reconstruction in Collin and Denton counties (including a $141.3 million I-35 widening project with 1,001 working days), hazard elimination in rural corridors, and bridge replacement and maintenance—all with November 2026 bid deadlines and 0% DBE goals. Florida continues to solicit roadway and pedestrian-path projects: Hillsborough County (Tampa) posted intersection improvements (IFB-26-00398) with a $1.24 million estimated value and 5% SBE subcontractor goal, due November 10, 2026; Monroe County solicited CEI services (RFQ652) for Key Deer Boulevard rehabilitation, due November 24, 2026; the City of Fort Myers re-bid a 1.83-mile shared-use path and bridge project (Sun Trail 447515-1-54-01) with prestressed concrete and steel bridge components, due November 9, 2026. Georgia activity includes Bulloch County's S&S Greenway Phase 3 and Josh Hagin Road paving (1.96 miles and 1.94 miles respectively, GDOT prequalification mandatory, federal Davis-Bacon wage requirements, due November 13, 2026) and Dorchester County's CTC 2026 resurfacing plan covering nine centerline miles with Warm Mix Asphalt requirements (IFB CTC 2026, due October 14, 2026). Connecticut's Town of Waterford Utility Commission posted sewer easement clearing (IFB 26-013, due November 12, 2026) with 25% small and minority-owned business participation goal, prevailing wage rates from $22.20 to $67.52 hourly, and 150-day completion. Set-asides and preferences vary: some projects carry 0% DBE goals, others impose 5% SBE subcontractor participation targets or 25–51% contractor direct-work requirements; a few (Seminole County's master contract for five drainage, paving, and grading firms; Collier County's transit construction pool) establish indefinite-delivery frameworks with multiple awards and work-order pricing rather than single fixed-price contracts.
