LUFKIN – In a virtual meeting last week, Texas Transportation Commissioners approved more than $245.5 million for new construction projects throughout the state, with $1.9 million approved for a new construction project in the Lufkin District.

 

The project was approved for Houston County and is designed to replace five off-system bridges on County Road 4025. Stateline Construction, LLC, Quitman TX, will serve as contractor for the project. Work will include the replacements of bridges at Box Creek, Gail Creek Tributary Bridge 1, Gail Creek Bridges 2 and 3, and Gail Creek Relief Bridge 4. There has been no timeline for completion established.

 

Motorists should prepare to take alternate routes or prepare for delays as this work begins. Stay alert and obey all signage and traffic control in the area.
