Supply and Delivery of Sand for Traction Control

The Texas Department of Transportation is seeking subcontractors to supply and deliver approved sand or abrasive materials for traction enhancement on state-maintained roadways during icy or hazardous winter conditions. The contract focuses solely on the provision and transportation of materials approved for use in improving road safety, with performance required across all TxDOT-maintained areas. Bidders must ensure materials meet specified technical standards for effectiveness and compatibility with infrastructure, and deliveries must be coordinated to respond promptly to inclement weather events across the state. The solicitation is open for responses until August 11, 2026, with submissions required through the Texas SmartBuy portal, and the NAICS code 214999 indicates this involves other support activities for mining, consistent with material supply for specialized industrial or infrastructure purposes.
