Motorists planning to traverse the area near the railroad tracks on FM 1709/Golden Triangle Boulevard are in for delays this week due to lane closures for signage and pavement marking replacements. According to a social media post from Keller Public Safety, the work is affiliated with the crossing's quiet zone status and is expected to cause inside lanes in both directions to be sealed off beginning around 6 a.m. today and concluding by the end of the day tomorrow.
Furthermore, drivers were cautioned about possible intermittent lane closures overnight yesterday, which would set the stage for this scheduled project. The suggested alternate routes might be a respite for drivers hoping to avoid the inconvenience, however, the said closures are predicted to spur additional congestion, traffic snarls near the crossing, and the neighboring intersections.
Keller Public Safety is urging residents and commuters in the area to bear with the temporary situation, and to navigate with particular care to ensure the safety of the workers on site. Patience from the community is much appreciated and will play a critical role in ensuring a smooth transition and completion of the infrastructure enhancements.
