North Legacy Drive in Prosper to undergo repairs following heavy rain

Prosper’s North Legacy Drive will close as contractors place additional drainage pipes under the street following heavy rain.

Prosper Town Council members unanimously approved an emergency repair order for the project during a May 28 meeting.

What happened?

Recent heavy rains caused soil erosion around drainage facilities under the road at the creek crossing, which the additional pipes should help with, according to meeting documents.

North Legacy Drive is expected to close for at least two days while contractors work. A start date was not discussed during the meeting.

Construction will cost $44,870 and is funded by the town’s annual street maintenance fund.
