Richardson announces its traffic construction trips for the week of Monday, March 19.
Abrams Road - This project includes replacement of the existing, undivided roadway with a new four-lane concrete roadway on Abrams Road from Walnut Street to south of Centennial Boulevard. In segments where existing right-of-way allows it, a concrete median will also be built. The storm sewer system and waterline will be upgraded and new concrete sidewalks, barrier free ramps, roadway illumination and traffic signals will be installed. Construction should be completed by January 2008.
Arapaho Road from Mimosa Drive to Floyd Road – The project includes pavement repair, barrier free ramps, sidewalks, retaining walls, drainage improvements, landscaping plantings and new landscape irrigation systems. Expect up to two directional traffic lanes to be temporarily blocked from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. on weekdays. The project should be completed by mid-April.
Yale Boulevard - This project includes full depth concrete pavement repairs on Yale Boulevard from Belt Line Road to Chestnut Hill Lane. In addition, sidewalks, residential driveway approaches, wheelchair ramps and median pavement will be repaired. Construction should be completed by the end of March. A traffic lane will be temporarily blocked at needed times as the work progresses along this corridor.
Mark Twain/Belt Line Road screening wall and entry features – Because of construction of a masonry wall along the north side of Belt Line Road from Bowser Road to east of Wake Court, this section of the westbound curb lane on Belt Line Road could be temporarily closed to traffic on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. until mid-July. The project also includes entry features at Bowser Road and at Wake Court as well as some landscaping and reconstruction of existing sidewalk.
Terrace Drive east of Greenville Avenue - Because of driveway construction, the westbound curb lane on Terrace Drive east of Greenville Avenue could be closed to traffic on weekdays from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. until late March.
