The contractor, RPM xConstruction, was awarded the contract for this project valued at more than $96 million. Work is slated to begin May 8. The contractor will begin setting barricades at work sites on May 5. The contract is anticipated to be completed in November of 2028.

This project will widen the four-lane roadway to six lanes divided over this 9.8-mile project. It will also convert the frontage roads to one-way operation and add u-turn bridges along US 75, one in Van Alstyne and one in Howe to improve circulation. The project will also reconstruct the bridge at County Line Road and add signals to the Haning St. intersection with the US 75 frontage road in Howe.

This construction is designed to improve safety, address traffic congestion, improve traffic flow and upgrade the roadway. Changes and improvements along this portion of US 75 will be constructed in phases as the project progresses, officials said.

Motorists who travel frequently in this area 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.
