Texas Department of Transportation
It may be the last week of the year, but the Texas Department of Transportation does not plan to stop its work on area roads. The department released a list Wednesday evening of its planned projects for the final week of the year. These schedules are subject to change due to weather conditions, equipment failure or other unforeseen issues, the release said. Motorists are advised to remain alert and pay special attention to all signs, barricades and traffic controls, and 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.
