Longhorn Project

In Texas, football is nearly a religion, and in the heart of the state sits Austin, home of the states largest university. Each weekend as hoards of University of Texas fans pour into the city, they are now greeted by larger than life Longhorns. The lighting fixtures placed under overpasses on each major access highway leading in and out of Austin were designed to mimic the Hookem Horns hand sign.

The pole sections, posts, and hardware of each horn were hot-dip galvanized for corrosion protection. Hot-dip galvanizings dual barrier and cathodic protection will provide decades of maintenance-free corrosion protection in the urban environment. Therefore, these one-of-a-kind Longhorns will light the way in and out of Austin for Longhorn fans to enjoy well into the future.
