The contractor, INDUS Road & Bridge, Inc., was awarded the contract for the 1.70-mile US 75 Project, valued at more than $145.4 million, which is designed to provide long-term transportation and operational improvements on US 75 from US 82 to SH 91, Segment 4, in Grayson County. It follows TxDOT’s US 75 Corridor Study which assessed safety, maintenance and system efficiency, congestion and freight reliability, environmental sustainability, transportation choices and economic vitality along US 75.

The project will widen the four-lane roadway to six-lanes-divided from US 82 to SH 91. The project will include reconstruction of the frontage roads as well as reconfigure and improve the intersection at US 75 and SH 91.

The changes to this important highway are designed to improve safety, address traffic congestion and improve traffic operations, and address deficiencies in this aging roadway.

Roadway changes and improvements will be constructed in phases as the project progresses, officials said. While this project is underway motorists are asked to pay special attention to all barricades, traffic controls and signs, and to reduce their speed as they approach and travel through work zones. They should also avoid distractions such as cell phones, eating, drinking, or car audio or navigation systems.
