Southwest Parkway project underway
Thursday, March 12, 2020 by Tai Moses
The city contractor has begun making street improvements to a section of Southwest Parkway to provide enhanced safety and pavement quality for motorists. The project is expected to take six to eight weeks, weather permitting, and will take place weekdays from 10 a.m.-3 p.m. and weekends from 7 a.m.-7 p.m. According to the news release, “Work will consist of surface milling, asphalt overlay, striping and installation of traffic signal loop indicators. The limits of the project are both eastbound and westbound lanes on Southwest Parkway from S Mopac Service Road to Mission Oaks Boulevard. Some lane closures may be in effect during working hours. Vehicles will always have access on SW Parkway in both directions.”
