2 road projects begin, close lanes in Richardson

Richardson motorists may experience lane closures as two road projects begin.

What you need to know

The right lane of eastbound Arapaho Road between US 75 and Plano Road may be closed in segments as sideway repairs have begun. The work is expected to be completed in mid-April, according to a news release from the city.

Additionally, fiber optic installation also began on Shiloh Road. As a result, the right lane of southbound Shiloh Road, extended 400 feet north and south of Breckinridge Boulevard. Work is expected to be completed in June.

What else?

City Manager Don Magner said the construction work on Glenville Drive is “progressing well.”

“The good news is that a vast majority of the sub-grade utility work has been completed," Magner said. “So now, it’s really just mostly about paving.”

Paving the remaining segments is expected to be completed quickly, Magner said, adding that work should be completed in April.
