FM 2025 Overpass Texas Department of Transportation 1/12/2015 5:13:29 PMProject Narrative
Currently, The FM 2025 overpass is a two lane paved highway with access roads to US-59 frontage roads. It does not have a sidewalk. The need for the proposed project is demonstrated by the following conditions: • Roadway design deficiencies. • Demand exceeds or approaches capacity for both a.m. & p.m. daily commute periods. • Congestion due to competing uses (i.e. local traffic use and through traffic use). The purpose of the proposed project is to improve mobility and safety, reduce traffic congestion, create a facility consistent with thoroughfare plans, and provide travel options while minimizing adverse environmental effects. Reconstruct FM 2025 overpass to three lane, two each direction with one left turn lane; reconstruct both US 59 northbound and southbound frontage road intersections, and widen FM 2025 to SH 573 and add a continuous center turn lane. No sidewalks are proposed as part of this project. This project does not require any right-of-way. The reconstruction of FM 2025 overpass that will tie back into the existing section heading north (two lanes with a left turn lane) and to SH 573 that will contain two lanes with a continuous center turn lane. Reconstruction of both of the IH 59 northbound and southbound frontage road intersections which consist of enlarging turn radii. A No Build option has also been considered. The improvements outlined in this application represent the preferred alternative. This project will not be staged as the improvements are needed cunccurent with each other as to reduce the issues presented.Project Narrative
