The SH 114/121 split will move to the east. Full highway closure on westbound SH 114 at Texan Trail. Traffic will be detoured to the westbound SH 114 frontage road.
CHISHOLM PARKWAY:
Now through mid-March: Construction crews switched traffic to a new section of frontage road on eastbound SH 183 between Bryant Irvin Road and Insurance Lane. As part of the traffic switch, the existing eastbound Bryant Irvin Road entrance ramp to SH 183 will be closed. Access to SH 183 eastbound from Bryant Irvin Road will be restored by mid-March, when crews are able to complete the construction of a temporary ramp. Motorists wanting to travel eastbound from the Bryant Irvin Road area towards Hulen or I-20 should instead take the eastbound I-20 frontage road.
Now through spring 2013: Various daily lane closures and mobility impacts. Eastbound and westbound SH 183/Southwest Boulevard reduced to one lane in each direction for the reconstruction and lowering of the main lanes. Eastbound SH 183/Southwest Boulevard frontage road reduced to one lane from Bryant Irvin Road to Insurance Lane. Westbound SH 183 frontage road reduced to one lane between Insurance Lane and Country Day Lane. Westbound entrance ramp from Insurance Lane to SH 183 is permanently closed.
Now through 2013: SH 183 from Crosslands Road to Bryant Irvin Road is now reduced to one lane through 2013 for the construction of connectors to the future SH 121/Chisholm Trail Parkway. This 24-hour-a-day closure will be extended from Bryant Irvin Road to Hulen Street for the reconstruction and the lowering of the SH 183 main lanes by approximately 40 feet.
Hulen Street Closures: Construction crews closed the northbound lanes of Hulen Street from Stonegate Boulevard to Hulen Place to allow for construction operations. Traffic on northbound Hulen Street is diverted onto the western half of the Hulen Street bridge. This has created one lane of traffic in each direction on the west half of the Hulen Street bridge across the UPRR's Davidson Yard. This closure will remain through 2013.
BUSINESS 287: February 18, 9am to February 28, 4pm -- Delays in the north and southbound lanes from Longhorn Rd. to Bonds Ranch Rd. due to slow moving road repair operations. Alternating lanes closed during the daytime.
