The construction, which extends from Greenville Avenue to just past Abrams Road, is expected to be completed in March, depending on weather conditions.
What’s happening
Oncor told the city it would begin moving overhead power lines underground starting this week, with its work expected to be complete in early February.
After the power lines are relocated, the city can begin the next stage of construction, which will include adding sidewalks, street lights and trees along the south side of the street. New paving has largely been completed already, except for the outer southside lane, where Oncor is still working.
The project has moved in phases in order to maintain two-way traffic on Main Street. At least one lane in each direction will remain open during construction, although traffic congestion may increase.
The big picture
The $6.5 million reconstruction project began in February 2025. Completed work includes a new dedicated turn lane onto Abrams Road, barrier-free ramps installed at intersections and the replacement of water, sewer and storm drainage pipes and inlets.
The project is Phase 2 of a larger reconstruction along Main Street aimed at improving downtown infrastructure within the city’s Core District.
