Weaver-Bailey Contractors

During the early 1960s, Weaver-Bailey continued to provide quality earthwork, subsurface drainage, and curb and gutter products across the state of Arkansas. However, with the shift in focus to major infrastructure, in 1997, the company was awarded the contract to build 4 miles of I-49 (formerly known as I-540) near Fayetteville, Arkansas, as well... as the 7-mile Pine Bluff Bypass. These projects set the stage for the company's emergence in the Highway Construction industry. In 1998, after 31 years, Charlie sold his interest in the ready-mix operation. The following year, he opened a quarry on his ranch near El Paso, Arkansas and founded Webco Mining. The quarry produced tons of quality crushed stone critical to a variety of aspects of infrastructure advancement in Arkansas through 2016. In 2002 Weaver-Bailey was awarded the largest contract to date in the history of the Arkansas Department of Transportation, the $57 million rehabilitation and expansion of Interstate 40 between Interstates 30 and 430, one of the busiest intersections for trailer trucks in the nation. In 2010 Weaver-Bailey took on their most ambitious project yet, the $100 million flyover project at the intersection of Interstates 430 and 630 known as the "Big Rock Interchange". The five-year project was completed ahead of schedule and stands as a testament to Weaver-Bailey's capabilities.Read More
