AMARILLO, TX (KFDA) - Today is day two of our construction roundup where we provide residents with an update on current hot topic projects across Amarillo.
Once completed, Loop 335 will be brought to an improved signalized intersection.
This project is contracted under Allen Butler Construction with a March 2, 2021 completion date.
“We had to rebuild the I-27 overpass, while also lengthening it for the turn-around’s we’re going to provide,” said TxDOT Amarillo Area Engineer Randy Hochstein. “Once it’s all said and done, this project will work to improve access and ease congestion in this area.”
Hochstein said this particular project is being done in anticipation of a future project in this area.
An overpass is also being built west of the loop near Coulter Street, which will be similar to the Bell Street intersection near Randall High School.
The original bid for this project was $42,375,492.40.
