At their Dec. 9 meeting, Celina City Council members approved a $1.75 million contract to repair and resurface Celina Parkway.
What you need to know
The work will stretch from FM 428 to the Collin County Outer Loop, according to city documents. Celina Parkway is “experiencing deteriorating surface conditions and drainage issues,” which require a full reclamation and resurfacing of the road, according to city documents.
Engineering Director Andy Glasgow said crews will repair the road with an asphalt overlay rather than replacing it with concrete, which would be more expensive and require more right-of-way acquisitions.
Zooming in
Funding for the project comes from Celina’s 2023 and 2024 bond funds, according to the city’s capital improvement project website.
Additionally, the project has experienced “some disruption” due to having insufficient funds to complete the project, which caused the city to reduce its scope from a concrete road to completing an asphalt overlay, according to the city’s website.
What’s next?
Construction is expected to start in early 2026 and wrap up by June, according to the city’s website.
