The contractor for the Texas Department of Transportation has placed rebar (also known as reinforcing bar) ahead of schedule in the designated median to lay concrete.  Work crews will be covering the rebar and placing a concrete curb in for medians. There have been reports that some cars have had tire blow outs crossing the construction area because motorists are utilizing the left lane turn.   

The Texas Department of Transportation will be placing more signs at these designated left turn lanes reminding drivers where to cross.   If you have any questions please call the city’s engineering department at 681-1151.
