County Road Resurfacing/Road Improvements Update

The District is slated for road improvements funded by the County this coming summer to include resealing the majority of streets.  This process will entail spraying a sealant on the roads followed by the application of gravel.  The sealant will improve traction between pavement and tire vehicles, protect the asphalt from aging, and prevent deterioration from water causing cracks and pot holes. The County will provide more information closer to the start date, including a schedule of the roads to be seal coated.  The County will also maintain a special webpage with updates concerning the project and contact information.

 Intersection Improvements Update

August 26, 2011

Paving work is scheduled to take place on Monday night, August 29 and Tuesday night, August 30th on O'Connor and Great Oaks Drive near the intersections with RM 620.  The work will start at 8:00 p.m. and continue until 6:00 a.m.  The work will consist of milling off the existing  pavement and paving a new driving surface.  Lane closures will be necessary for this work, but one lane in each direction will be maintained at all times.  This work is part of the O'Connor Drive Extension from RM 620 to one half mile south of SH 45.

This work is part of the construction project to extend O'Connor Drive and Great Oaks Drive from RR620 south to SH 45.  The additional lanes are needed to provide adequate traffic flow through the intersections.  The funds for the project were approved by the voters in the 2006 county bond election.
