The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has several roadwork projects underway, many of which will directly impact areas of Grayson County.
FM 901, from US 82 to US 377 Watch for daytime lane closures as maintenance crews place seal coat on the roadway surface. Motorists should expect delays as flaggers and pilot cars direct traffic through the work zone.
US 377 in Tioga, from South of FM 922 to North of Mc Knight Rd. and from Hinton St. to Shawnee Dr.
This project will widen US 377 on each side of the roadway to allow for the addition of a center left-turn lane.
This project will also install traffic signals at the intersection of US 377 and FM 121 and at the intersection of US 377 and FM 922. Watch for shoulder closures and occasional daytime lane closures on the northbound and southbound US 377 main lanes as well as on FM 922.
Motorists should expect delays during the daytime work hours as flaggers direct traffic through the work zone.
SH 289, in Dorchester at the FM 902 intersection
This project will widen SH 289 on each side of the roadway to allow for the addition of a center left-turn lane. This project will also install traffic signals at this intersection.
Watch for shoulder closures and occasional daytime lane closures on the northbound and southbound SH 289 main lanes as well as on FM 902.
The new signal light at the SH 289 and FM 902 intersection was activated on Thursday, May 29. The signal has started normal operation, and drivers should pay attention to this new signal as they approach the intersection.
US 75, from the Collin County Line to FM 902
This project will widen the US 75 mainlanes from the Collin County Line to FM 902 to six lanes. The project will also reconstruct the bridge at County Line Road and construct new u-turn bridges in Van Alstyne near Simmons Loop and in Howe south of Hall Cemetery Road.
This project will convert the frontage roads from two-way operation to one-way operation. Two lanes on the US 75 main lanes will remain open in each direction during the daytime hours with occasional lane closures during the nighttime period.
Watch for lane closures on the frontage roads during construction. A reduced speed limit of 65 mph on the US 75 mainlanes has been set for this construction project.
