Construction Updates

Roads

Morriss Road STEP Grant Median Beautification Project - The Town in cooperation with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has begun a median beautification project on Morriss Road from FM 407 to FM 2499.  This project will have various lane closures in the lane closest to the median. Work is scheduled to be complete in July.

FM 3040 and FM 1171 Median Beautification Projects - The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has begun two median beautification projects.  Each project will continue to have various lane closures in the lane closest to the median.  (TxDOT project and schedule)

Flower Mound Road Left Turn Lane – Design is complete on a new left turn lane west of FM 2499 on Flower Mound Road.  Construction is scheduled to begin in March with a one-and-a-half month completion time. Flower Mound Road will remain open throughout the construction of the project. For questions, please contact Tiffany Bruce at 972.874.6306.

FM 2499 Section 2 -The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) recently began a project to add two lanes to the existing center median of FM 2499, resulting in a six-lane divided thoroughfare from Spinks Road to FM 1171. The roadway is open to traffic and the project will be complete upon establishment of vegetation and completion of the sound wall. For more information, call 972.874.6310.

FM2499 Section 3 - The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is widening the existing two lane roadway to a six lane divided thoroughfare from FM 1171 to FM 407. Construction began October 29, 2007, and will continue for approximately 24 months. Temporary lane closures will occur near Waketon Road and Timber Creek Bridge.  Beginning April 2, 2008, the intersection of FM 407 and FM 2499 will be re-striped and a low profile barrier installed.  This will result in the removal of the dedicated right turn lane in the eastbound direction for approximately 10 months.

FM 1171 - Major interim improvements complete. Six-lane, divided from FM 2499 to I-35W. (TxDOT project and schedule)

FM 407 - Phase II, from Country Meadow to Chinn Chapel. Environmental assessment and design underway. (TxDOT project and schedule)

Spinks Road II - Reconstruction of existing two lane asphalt road and small area of two lane concrete, one lane asphalt road to four lane concrete divided road with curb and gutter from Aberdeen to Gerault Road.  Construction is complete. For questions, please contact Tiffany Bruce at 972.874.6306.

Lakeside Parkway - There are several private commercial development projects underway along Lakeside Parkway between FM 2499 and Freeport Pkwy/Town limits. Temporary lane closures will occur along this route for the construction of turn lanes, median openings, and storm system improvements until May 2008.
