This week's lane closures and road construction update involve mowing, closed frontage roads, broken traffic signals and more. Here are the area affected this week.
As the ongoing construction continues so do your traffic woes. This week it seems a lot of work will be happening on Wednesday in various locations. Here's this week's construction update and lane closures.
A few minor things will slow you down this week with TxDOT, however the City of Amarillo will start a new project on South Western and Bell that will slow you down until September.
As the Bell/I-40 Bridge project slowly comes to an end, if you use this for your commutes, be prepared to be slowed all week long as they put the finishing touches on the new bridge.
As the construction moves on that means more lane closures. If you travel South Loop 335, your commute Thursday might be slowed down due to multiple lane closures.
As the construction continues in Amarillo and people joke that the new baseball team should be called the "Construction Cones", we still have to deal with lane closures and this week is a big week for those closures. Here's what is going to be affecting the commute this week.
I am still a firm believer that at each city limit sign coming into Amarillo, we need to have huge signs that reads, "Welcome to Amarillo, Where Every Road is Under Construction."
