The $10B+ NHHIP Is the Largest Highway Project in Texas History. See the Whole Rental Picture.

TxDOT's North Houston Highway Improvement Project (NHHIP) is a $10B+ reconstruction of I-45, I-69, and I-10 through downtown Houston, the largest highway project in Texas history. This 10+ year mega-build will require enormous amounts of heavy equipment: cranes, pile drivers, excavators, dump truck fleets, concrete pumps, and generators. TrueRent keeps rental history, rates, fees and activity in one picture for field, purchasing and accounting.

Houston is already one of the busiest construction markets in America. Adding a $10B+ highway project that runs for a decade creates sustained equipment demand that drives up pricing for everyone. Pile driving rigs, heavy cranes, and earthmoving equipment are in constant demand, and rental companies charge accordingly. We start by learning how you rent today.
