The Texas Street northbound lane will remain closed through Tuesday, and then will close intermittently throughout the length of the project, which is expected to last at least three weeks, depending on weather conditions.
During the road closure, city crews will be doing grading and reconstruction work in the channel along the northbound lane of Texas Street to address erosion caused by recent storms. The project also includes the removal and replacement of a damaged guardrail.
