US 67 at Lake Ridge Parkway Project Dallas and Ellis Counties - Public Meeting
CSJs: 0261-01-041
Purpose:
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) Dallas District is conducting a public meeting to solicit comments on the proposed construction of a grade separation (Phase I – interim) for United States Highway (US) 67 at Lake Ridge Parkway, in Dallas and Ellis Counties, Texas. The length of the proposed project is approximately 1.9 miles.
Description:
The proposed project improvements would consist of the construction of a grade-separated interchange at Lake Ridge Parkway with an overpass at US 67, and would include six 12-foot lanes (three in each direction), 10-foot raised median, curb and gutter, and Texas U-turns. The existing ramps within the project area would be converted to an X-ramp pattern design for Lake Ridge Parkway. The proposed improvements would also include reconstruction of US 67 mainlanes and frontage roads, from north of Shiloh Road to south of Mt. Lebanon Road. The proposed US 67 mainlanes would consist of four 12-foot lanes (two in each direction), 22-foot inside shoulder, and 10- foot outside shoulders. 26-foot wide inside grassy median separates the northbound and southbound mainlanes. The 22-foot inside shoulder would be restriped in the future to add one additional travel lane in each direction. The proposed northbound and southbound frontage roads would consist of two 12-foot lanes and 8-foot inside and outside shoulders. The purpose of the proposed project is to reduce traffic congestion, enhance connectivity, and improve mobility and safety.
