1. Custer Road widening

The city of Frisco is widening Custer Road from Stonebridge Drive to SH 121. The road runs between Frisco and McKinney and sees daily traffic to and from both cities. To accommodate the growth in this area, the 3-mile project will widen the existing four-lane roadway to six lanes.

Construction on this project was 70 percent complete as of mid-August and is expected to be completed in the fourth quarter of this year between October and December, according to Frisco officials.

Heavy traffic is expected in this area until construction is complete. City staff is coordinating with the Texas Department of Transportation regarding closures, detours and traffic switches along Custer, FM 423 and US 380 during the road’s widening projects.
