Two road projects in Southlake will affect resident travel for about the next two months, weather permitting.

Randol Mill Avenue from Johnson Road to Florence Road in Southlake will be closed to through traffic for about 60 days for water and sewer construction work, according to a city news release.

Also beginning this week, the Park Village contractor will begin Phase 1 of a two-phase project to aid in preparing for the center's fall opening, a city release states.

Construction on both phases of that project is expected to last 60 days, and includes the widening of Carroll Avenue near Park Village, the construction of a deceleration lane for the main drive into the development and center median improvements.

The Randol Mill work is intended to prepare the area for TxDOT's planned widening of the roadway.

"We are working with the residents that are directly affected by this closure to mitigate the inconvenience as much as possible," Director of Public Works Bob Price said.

To facilitate traffic flow through the Carroll Avenue construction site, a traffic lane reconfiguration will be in effect where motorists will have access to one northbound lane and two southbound lanes of S. Carroll Avenue. Delays are expected once the traffic switch goes into effect and it is advised that motorists seek alternate routes.
