A stretch of Legacy Drive will soon be widened and improved after Frisco City Council on June 1 awarded a construction contract.
McMahon Contracting was awarded a bid of more than $17.2 million for the project. Included in the purchase order are $1 million for construction phase contingencies to address potential changes during construction. In total, the city is spending more than $18.2 million from city bond funds.
Legacy Drive, from SH 121 to Warren Parkway, will be widened from a four-lane divided roadway to six lanes, according to city documents. The project will reconstruct a majority of the existing four lanes.
Several additional improvements also comprise the project, including intersection and drainage improvements; a new traffic signal at the intersection of Legacy Drive and Country Club Boulevard; modifications and upgrades to the existing traffic signals on Legacy Drive at SH 121, Town and Country Boulevard, Stonebriar Drive, and Warren Parkway; addition of a retaining wall; street lighting; and median landscape and irrigation.
