Project overview
The installation began this fall, Antonio Luján, a public information officer at the Texas Department of Transportation, or TxDOT, in an email to Community Impact.
The project—funded by the TxDOT—costs $2.5 million and includes eight new traffic signals, utility work to power the new signals and signage, the email states.
The details
Drivers previously had stop signs directing them at both the northbound and southbound intersections, but a corridor study concluded that signals would improve safety and decrease the time drivers waited to get through the intersection, the email states.
