MIDLAND, VA / ACCESS Newswire / March 24, 2026 / Smith-Midland Corporation (NASDAQ:SMID), a leading producer of innovative precast concrete products for infrastructure, transportation, and building construction, has been selected to supply $5.4 million in precast concrete noise wall systems for the Complete 540-Triangle Expressway Southeast Extension Project (Complete 540) Segment B. The project is owned by the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) and is being constructed by Flatiron Dragados.
The project includes a combination of SoftSound absorptive Ashlar noise walls, prestressed columns for traditional precast noise walls, decorative column caps, and precast base and top coping panels. The decorative prestressed columns with horizontal chamfers and separate column caps will provide additional architectural detailing and visual definition between wall sections, keeping with the design specifications required.
All components for the project will be produced at the North Carolina plant, with manufacturing scheduled to begin in May 2026, with delivery and installation expected to start in July 2026.
"Projects like Complete 540 Triangle Expressway Southeast Extension demonstrate how precast can deliver both performance and aesthetics for modern transportation corridors," said Matthew Smith, Vice President of Sales and Marketing at Smith-Midland Corporation. "By combining our SoftSound absorptive technology with architectural elements such as decorative columns and hybrid masonry systems, we're helping NCDOT reduce roadway noise while creating infrastructure that enhances the surrounding community."
The Complete 540 project will complete an important portion of the loop around the Raleigh area, and Smith-Midland's precast solutions will support NCDOT District 5's goals for effective noise mitigation, durability, and enhanced corridor appearance along this major transportation route.
