The $7.2 million project will first build a culvert at the intersection. This will mean road closures and one-way traffic on Keller Hicks Road from Lauren Way to Katy Road for about three months, according to city documents. Drivers are advised to take Park Vista Boulevard to Timberland Boulevard as a detour.
What else?
In addition to building a culvert, the project will improve the existing two-lane asphalt road with a three-lane concrete road, including a center turn lane, city documents stated.
Other improvements include:
- 10-foot sidewalks replacing drainage
- Illumination improvements
- Replacing the stop sign at the intersection of Keller Hicks Road and Katy Road with a traffic signal and left-turn lanes
- Removing and replacing an existing culvert to change the elevation of the road at the culvert crossing
