Traffic Switch on Preston Road - June 19

As part of TxDOT’s widening project, traffic on Preston Road will be switched to the new pavement between Eldorado Parkway and US 380 on Saturday, June 19 (weather permitting). Two-way traffic will run together on the new east half of the road while TxDOT reconstructs the west half. Once the switch occurs, westbound traffic waiting to turn onto Preston Road will have to stop at a new location farther east than they have been used to. Westbound motorists should pay special attention to the new location of stop lines on all driveways and roadways in the construction zone, such as westbound Rock Hill Road, Panther Creek Parkway, and Mockingbird Lane.

Also, a new traffic signal on Preston Road at Panther Creek Parkway will become operational on Saturday. Motorists are urged to use caution at this intersection as people become accustomed to the new traffic control patterns.
