Scope of Work

This project will include signalizing the intersection of Walker Street and Kessler’s Crossing at the UTMB entrance and adding left turn lanes in the northbound and southbound directions of Walker Street at the Kessler’s Crossing intersection. The project also includes signalizing the intersection of Walker Street and Victory Lakes Dr. and adding a northbound left turn lane on Walker Street and a southbound right turn lane along Walker Street at this intersection. In addition, the project will include signalizing the intersection of Walker Street and Town Center Drive and expanding the travel lanes from that intersection through the FM 646 intersection and adding additional turn lanes to southbound Walker Street at the FM 646 intersection. The additions will provide a total of two left turn lanes, two through lanes, and a dedicated right turn lane at FM 646.

Project Status as of July 2022

Design for this project is 100% complete and is prepared to advertise for bid once right of way acquisition and TxDOT permitting are complete. Pending the schedule of these two items, it is possible that the project will bid in multiple phases if permitting at FM 646 is slowing down the remainder of the project. Staffs goal is to bid this project in Summer 2022.
