A Hutto construction project could slow traffic through 1 p.m. today and again Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The turn lane from eastbound Hwy. 79 on to FM 685 will be closed to accommodate construction and milling work. A flagger will be onsite for railroad safety during the work, which will be done as weather permits.

Sidewalk work will continue, along with northbound lane paving south of the Brushy Creek bridge. The project completion date has been changed to March.
