Crane Service Infrastructure
Cement Drain Lift Public Works Project

Thornton’s Crane Service handles infrastructure projects. We did a cool lift next to the Mall of Abilene. The construction contractor was working on resolving drainage issues along South Clack Street in connection with the Buffalo Gap Road Improvement project. Our operators set a 20,000 pound precast cement drainage box. The guys at WS Construction were really cool and everything was really smooth from start to finish.
