Southbound U.S. 75 HOV in Plano reopened early

0

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) reopened the southbound U.S. 75 High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lane Wednesday. TxDOT closed the southbound U.S. 75 HOV lane back in October of 2008 to provide space for construction equipment and activity.

During the closure, crews completed:

* demolition of the old Parker Road bridge

* construction of half of the new center Parker Road bridge

* construction of the concrete traffic barrier which separates the HOV lanes

* construction of the bridge columns for the two remaining bridges

The $20 million construction project to convert the U.S. 75 and Parker Road interchange from a standard, grade-separated bridge to a single-point urban interchange (SPUI) is estimated to be complete by fall 2010.
