Land excavation, grading and soil transport
operations will start next week in the Core Project Area of the
Cowboys Stadium in Arlington. According to construction management
team officials, this activity is expected to continue daily until mid
September.
Manhattan Construction officials estimate that more
than 750,000 cubic yards of dirt will be moved off-site from the
stadium bowl or footprint area. Construction Superintendent Jeff
Stroud said raising the elevation of the stadium project has
significantly decreased the amount of soil scheduled to be removed
from the project area.
The soil is being transported to sites east and
west of the Metroplex. For the next five months, approximately 500
trucks will move through the Core Project Area daily.
