US 67 Overnight Ramp Closures Construction begins next week on the widening of US 67, from Belt Line Road to IH-20, to provide congestion relief and operations improvements to the US 67 corridor. The six mile project includes widening of the existing 4-lane roadway to a 6-lane roadway and the installation of Texas U-turns at FM 1382 and at Belt Line Road. Various overnight ramp closures will occur between September 25 and September 27 for striping and setting traffic barriers along US 67. Weather permitting, the exit ramp to FM 1382 from northbound US 67 will be closed beginning at 10 p.m. on September 25 to 5 a.m. September 26. Motorists headed northbound on US 67 may exit at the Cooper Street/Belt Line exit to access FM 1382. The exit ramp to Pleasant Run Road from northbound US 67 will be closed beginning at 10 p.m. September 26 to 5 a.m. September 27. DETOUR: Traffic must exit at FM 1382 northbound.

Mansfield Road Improvements
This project has been designed and will be constructed in partnership with Dallas County in coordination with: Texas Parks and Wildlife, US Army Corps of Engineers, City of Grand Prairie, City of Mansfield, and City of Midlothian. The design development has also benefitted from extensive citizen involvement and review. This project, Mansfield Road between Belt Line Road and Anderson Drive, is part of approximately 12.2 mile roadway system which connects State Highway 161 (at I-20) to US Highway 67. The project section of this roadway system is the only portion which is not four (4) lanes wide. The project scope includes the widening of Mansfield Road from two (2) lanes to a 4-lane divided arterial roadway, from approximately 600 feet west of the intersection of Belt Line Road to the western city limit (just west of Anderson Drive). The project includes replacement/upgrading of water mains, sewer mains, and the installation of underground storm drainage improvements.
The construction contract was awarded by Cedar Hill City Council to Tiseo Paving Company, Inc. as the prime contractor for the construction of these improvements. In August 2015, Oncor Electric began relocating utility poles along Mansfield Road. AT&T is still working on relocation efforts following the completion of the Oncor's utility work. The Mansfield Road Improvements Project also included and completed localized street failure repairs on Lakeview Drive, between Lake Ridge Parkway and Mansfield Road. What will be the improvements to Mansfield Road once construction is complete? The existing two-lane asphalt Mansfield Road will be replaced with a four-lane (two in each direction) divided roadway. Bike lanes will be included in both directions. There will be a raised median separating eastbound and westbound traffic. The median will be landscaped and lined with new street lights. A bridge will be contructed over Baggett Branch Stream replacing the existing concrete box culvert crossing. A six (6) foot wide concrete sidewalk will be constructed on the south side of Mansfield Road. A twelve (12) foot wide concrete trail will be constructed on the north side of Mansfield Road. For additional information regarding the plans for bike lanes and trails throughout the City, please review the Parks Hike and Bike Trails Master Plan. Final construction plans for the project are ongoing. The intersections of Mansfield Road and Lake Ridge Parkway, and Mansfield Road and Lakeview Drive, will each be a traffic signal controlled intersection.

West FM 1382 Improvements - Intersection Improvements
Construction for this project will be managed by TxDOT: Willie Bolden, Project Manager Texas Department of Transportation 214.319.3585 The project scope includes: Constructing a left turn lane and median opening for west bound FM 1382 traffic to enter into the Dogwood Canyon Audubon Center. A traffic signal light will be installed at the entrance of Cedar Hill State Park. A hike and bike trail will be installed on the south side of FM 1382 connecting the sidewalk at New Clark Road to the entrance road to Cedar Hill State Park. The highway median is being narrowed on the eastbound side of FM 1382 in the area of Dogwood Canyon Audubon Center and the Newman International Academy at Cedar Hill (NICH), formerly Northwood University. Through traffic will be shifted towards the median which will effectively create the space for a deceleration/acceleration lane for the Dogwood Canyon Audubon Center and Newman International Academy at Cedar Hill.
This project was advertised and awarded, and construction began March 2017. The roadway construction is anticipated to be complete in the fall of 2017. The hike and bike trail construction is scheduled to begin late summer and likely will not be complete until spring 2018. TxDOT is in the design stage of a future intersection traffic light installation on west FM 1382 at the entrance to Newman International Academy.
