Two northbound lanes of US 75 (east side), between McDermott and Allen Drive, will be shut down from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. beginning tonight (Tuesday) for the placement of concrete traffic barriers. The barrier placement work will end Friday morning by 6 a.m. Also, the on-ramp north of McDermott and the exit ramp for Allen Drive will be closed at various times during this operation.
These closures will be temporary, will not occur outside the hours of 7 p.m. and 6 a.m., and will only be done to facilitate the placement of the concrete traffic barriers.
TxDOT uses 4-ft high concrete traffic barriers to delineate the edge of the travel way alongside the construction work zone. These barriers currently run along the main lanes of US 75 stopping at Bethany.
