Davis Highway Resurfacing To Begin

January 26, 2014

A $1.6 million project to resurface a portion of Davis Highway is getting underway. Crews will begin installing signs and performing preliminary construction activities this week along the 1.8 mile section between University Parkway and U.S. 90.

Improvements under this contract consists of resurfacing the roadway from north of University Parkway to U.S. 90, constructing sidewalk and  ramp improvements, minor drainage upgrades, signalization and guardrail improvements, and placing new signs and pavement markings within the project limits.

Planned improvements requiring lane restrictions will take place at night between 7 p.m. and 6 a.m. There will be no lane closures allowed during daytime peak traffic hours.  Access to homes and businesses will be maintained at all times. Vehicular, pedestrian and bicycle traffic are reminded to use caution when traveling through the work area.

Construction activities are weather dependent and may be delayed or re-scheduled in the event of inclement weather.

    NO part of Davis is bad at all. Money’s been spent working on this road for fifteen years straight now. Why not spend money and fix Olive Road or the giant ruts on parts of 29 south of 10? Widen Nine Mile west of 29 maybe? Fix the traffic problems around Milestone? Repave the ramps at 29 and Nine Mile?

    That’s nice. But I wonder why won’t the just resurface olive road from palafox to 9th ave. This road that is heavily traveled and is in the worst condition. In my opinion Davis is fine.
