en.Wedoany.com Reported - The Plano City Council in Texas, USA, approved funding for two transportation infrastructure projects at its meeting on May 11. The city approved a contract with Garret Shields Infrastructure for $2,566,690, valid for two years, for concrete repairs on city arterial roads. A revised contract for another intersection improvement project was also passed simultaneously.

Drew Zaeske, Community Investment Project Manager for Public Works, stated that specific construction road sections will be determined next month. According to city documents, the total estimated cost for the arterial road repair project is $3.5 million, which will repair 25,000 square yards of arterial concrete pavement, 12,400 square feet of sidewalk concrete, and 24 accessible ramps citywide. This transportation infrastructure project has a broad scope and, upon completion, will improve travel conditions on multiple roads throughout the city.

Regarding intersection improvements, the city will proceed with construction at the intersection of Preston Road and Town Square Boulevard after adding $165,679 to the contract with XIT Paving and Construction Inc. City documents indicate that the southbound left-turn lane at this intersection will be extended to reduce the likelihood of vehicles backing up into the through lanes. Zaeske stated that other parts of the intersection will not be affected by the construction. The revised total amount for this project is $2,782,021.43, and other intersection improvement works involved include the intersections of Legacy Drive and SH 121, SH 121 and JP Morgan Driveway, Corporate Drive and Legacy Drive, and Corporate Drive and Tennyson Parkway. Upon completion of these transportation infrastructure upgrades, traffic efficiency in the relevant sections is expected to improve.
