Construction started at the intersection of FM 149 and Hwy. 105 in Montgomery in early March.
The city of Montgomery and Texas Department of Transportation have partnered to construct right and left turn lanes. According to a March 14 update from TxDOT, the project began in the third quarter of 2018.
But Assistant City Manager Dave McCorquodale said the project started with installation of new signal poles and stop signs before the project came to a halt in 2019.
"There was some back and forth between TxDOT and the city of Montgomery to make sure the title was clear in order to donate the property at the time," he said in a phone interview. "The project was delayed for approximately a year while the city cleared an access easement on the property."
