This will be an on-going, ever-advancing post because Texas Department of Public Safety (TxDOT) sends new and refreshing information each weekend, sometimes even in between the ongoing projects.

Waco Street, aka SH 5, in Van Alstyne will be receiving TxDOT’s yearly crack seal from Redden Road to the Collin County line.  NEW: March 19 2025, beginning.  US Hwy 75,  from the Collin County Line to FM 902. Construction on this project is expected to begin on March 19, 2025.  This project will widen the US 75 mainlanes from the Collin County Line to FM 902 to six lanes; will also reconstruct the bridge at County Line Road and construct new u-turn bridges in Van Alstyne near Simmons Loop and in Howe south of Hall Cemetery Road; will convert the frontage roads from two-way operation to one-way operation. Two lanes on the US 75 main lanes will remain open in each direction during the daytime hours with occasional further lane closures during the nighttime period. Watch for lane closures on the frontage roads during construction.  SH 5, in Van Alstyne from Williams Way to Blassingame Avenue.  Watch for daytime lane closures on SH 5 as crews work to install a shared use bicycle and pedestrian trail.  The trail will follow along SH 5 from the existing trail at Williams Way to Blassingame Avenue, then along Tolson Avenue, then along Main Street where it will connect with Van Alstyne Parkway.  Motorists should expect delays during the daytime work hours as flaggers direct traffic through the work zone. Began in 2024:   FM 121, from Main Street in Van Alstyne eastward to SH 160.  TxDOT crews work to rehabilitate and widen the roadway to an overall width of 26 feet. Motorists should expect delays as signals and pilot cars direct traffic through the work zone.
