The McKalla Station will be a new MetroRail station located on the rail corridor, approximately 850 feet south of Braker Lane and adjacent to the new Major League Soccer (MLS) Stadium. This station will serve as a key transit option for stadium customers, and serve the greater community as an expanded service for the MetroRail Red Line; large residential areas exist to the east of the proposed station, and major commercial, retail, and university areas in the vicinity. 

The North White Chapel Boulevard Widening Project was initially approved in 2008 as part of the Southlake 2030 Master Mobility Plan to improve safety and mobility and is the largest roadway reconstruction project that the City has ever undertaken. Huitt-Zollars was the prime engineering design consultant responsible for the final design plans and specifications for the reconstruction of 4,000 LF of North White Chapel Boulevard from Emerald Boulevard to south of Highland Street. Construction for the project was completed in mid-2022 with a construction cost of $14 million.

Huitt-Zollars was engaged for the architectural and engineering design and consulting services for the renovation of the Bachman Recreation Center in Dallas. This project is a facility condition assessment update which included a program of prioritized needs such as A/E services for the interior renovation. These services included schematic design, design development, construction documents, bidding, and construction administration along with the study of reconfiguration of interior spaces as well as replacement of finishes.

The City of University Park, Texas, has been experiencing frequent flooding impacting different parts of the city. Huitt-Zollars was hired by the City to develop a Stormwater Master Plan for the Upper Turtle Creek Basin A. The Stormwater Master Plan divided the basin into three areas of interest. This particular project is the first phase of the University Park Storm Drain Replacement project, which addresses the first area of interest.  

TxDOT is undertaking a program to update and modernize its facilities asset portfolio of nearly 400 facilities for use in future renovations and maintenance projects. As part of a pilot program, Huitt-Zollars was selected by TxDOT to provide architectural as-built digital scan surveys (virtual reality capture) and spatial Revit BIM modeling of three TxDOT campuses, encompassing 33 buildings and approximately 175,000 square feet. Services included acquiring, modeling, and incorporating information into the State’s facility management database.

As part of their Zero Emission Electric Bus Initiative, CapMetro partnered with Huitt-Zollars to design the infrastructure needed to introduce and house the Agency’s new and growing fleet of electric buses. The new North Operations battery electric bus (BEB) yard is able to support charging capacity for nearly 200 electric buses. The bus yard layout and underground conduit were designed for maximum flexibility and are able to accommodate any bus/charger configuration that CMTA chooses to test or implement.
