Plans call for closure of the southbound right lane from Brumlow Avenue/Pool

3:00 p.m. to complete construction of retaining walls. Today's closure of that lane for

No other lane closures are scheduled at this time. In the event an unanticipated lane
closure happens, TxDOT's midday closures typically range from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.,
and night closures from 7:00 p.m. to 6:00 a.m. Drivers should always use caution while
driving through the work zone.
SH 26 UTILITY RELOCATION PROJECT
(City of Colleyville/utility franchises)
Please send any questions, concerns, or comments to 26@colleyville.com.
Lane closures may be in effect this week from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on the
east side of SH 26, from Old Glade Road to Professional Court while Atmos
installs new gas lines. AT&T will be working in the same area installing a new duct
bank. All affected businesses have been notified.
Lane closures are expected from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. on the west side of SH
26, from Village Lane south to Glade Road, so the contractor can place a new
sanitary sewer line. All affected businesses have been notified.
Installation of the new water line from Church Street to Main Street has been
completed. The contractor continues to work on driveway and road repairs from Church
Street, southbound on both sides of SH 26. Businesses will be notified prior to the start
of any work and access will be provided at all times.
Time Warner continues to bore cable and move overhead lines on both sides of SH 26 at
various locations. All businesses affected by these activities have been notified.
CHEEK-SPARGER/JACKSON ROAD ROUNDABOUT
The landscaping contractor continues installation of the wall in the roundabout and
should begin the rock work by week's end. The contractor also will be placing a retaining
wall on the northeast corner of the bridge. You can also expect to see sidewalk being
placed.
The roundabout is now in its final alignment although there is still some construction
around the travel lanes. For safety reasons, temporary stop signs will remain in place to
slow traffic. The contractor still has a few items to place along the corridor, but must
work around AT&T's relocation of some of its lines. To keep the crews safe, brief lane
closures may occur as necessary to finish the remaining work.
PONDEROSA LANE/KINGSTON ADDITION IMPROVEMENTS
Ponderosa Street will be reduced to one lane from 7:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. this
week while the contractor places concrete driveways and new curb and gutter. The
contractor will also be performing backfill on Kingston and McCain Lane. The road
will remain open to traffic and the work will not disrupt trash/recycle collection.
PLEASANT RUN ROAD PROJECT
Pleasant Run Road is closed from Mission Lane to Church Street and from Bogart Drive
to Church Street. For now, Church Street and Colleyville Terrace will remain open to
thru traffic.
Entry and exit for residents, mail delivery, trash collection, school buses, and
emergency vehicles in the area will be from Church Street. All others should plan to use
alternate routes: SH 26 to Hall-Johnson Road then to Bogart Drive or SH 26 to Church
Street, then west to Bransford Road or SH 26.
Drainage and water improvements are now complete. This coming week the
contractors will start placing concrete drainage structures throughout the
corridor.
WATER FACILITY RENEWAL
Area 1
The contractor will be placing water at Wagonwheel Court and testing the line on
Windswept Trail. Residents have been notified and the road will remain open to
traffic. The work will not disrupt emergency vehicle, bus, or trash/recycle collection.
Area 2
The contractor will be testing the new water line on Lowrie Road, Reagan Road, and
Styles Lane. It is possible that the contractor may be swapping the new service
lines to the new water line; however, any disruption to water service will be
minimal and residents will be notified before any disruption. Residents have been
notified and the road will remain open to traffic. The work will not disrupt
emergency vehicle, bus, or trash/recycle collection.
