AMARILLO, TEXAS -- Out and about this next week, the Texas Department of Transportation says motorists can expect delays throughout Amarillo because of construction projects.
Paul Braun, TxDOT spokesman, said all projects are subject to change because of the weather, emergency work and other unexpected events.
From TxDOT:
· On Interstate 40, expect lane closures in both directions from the Oldham County line to the Carson County line for patching.
· On the Interstate 27 frontage roads, expect lane closures in both directions from 45th Street to the McCormick Overpass for fog sealing.
· On NW Loop 335, expect one-lane traffic in each direction for bridge construction near the new Coulter Street intersection.
· On Grand Street, the northbound lanes on the east-side of the roadway are closed for construction of the new overpass. Traffic is reduced to one lane in each direction on the two west-side lanes from about ½ mile south of 3rd Street to about ½ mile north of 3rd Street. This lane closure will be in effect until the project ends by summer of 2012.
