Bixby, OK

Bixby's "Green Country" agricultural heritage is visible in the fertile river-bottom farmland of the Arkansas River valley that runs through the western edge of the city — land that was lettuce and vegetable farms for generations and that is now being converted to residential and commercial development as Bixby's growth extends toward the river corridor. The agricultural soil legacy of the Arkansas River valley means Bixby has a soil profile that combines the river bottomland alluvial deposits of the western areas with the upland clay soils of the eastern residential areas — a geological transition that requires geotechnical attention on every commercial project, because the foundation engineering appropriate for one part of the city may not apply to a site a half-mile away in a different soil zone.

Bixby Public Schools' rapid enrollment growth mirrors the residential growth, and the district has been in nearly continuous construction and expansion mode — new elementary schools, expanded secondary capacity, and athletic facility improvements that generate one of the more active school construction pipelines in the Tulsa metro. Saint Francis Health System operates a clinic in Bixby, and the medical office development along the commercial corridors continues to expand as the population adds healthcare demand. New apartment and senior living construction has been active in Bixby as the city's residential market has diversified beyond the single-family home development that initially drove growth.

Commercial development in Bixby is concentrated along the South 169 corridor and at the 121st Street and South Memorial Drive intersections, with grocery, pharmacy, restaurant, and service commercial filling in as the residential population density crosses the thresholds that support each retail format. Concrete parking lot construction, commercial pad site foundations, and ground-up retail shell construction are the recurring commercial construction project types in this market. Tilt-wall construction for larger retail formats has been active as the city's commercial development matures.

Inner Loop Construction serves Bixby's full commercial construction spectrum — residential and commercial foundation engineering on both the alluvial bottomland and upland clay soil profiles, retail pad site construction along the 169 corridor, school and institutional concrete for Bixby Public Schools, medical office concrete for Saint Francis and the independent medical office market, and the multifamily and senior living construction that Bixby's diversifying residential market is generating. We are one of the Oklahoma construction firms best positioned to serve one of the state's most active suburban growth markets.
