Detour Routes
A reader asked a great question about how drivers can get to places like Huntington State Bank and El Chico from Crown Colony or that direction since construction has blocked off the easy way to get there.
TxDOT officials gave a couple of ways to get around construction. One would be to drive up the highway until you see a place where you can do a U-turn and then turn around and go back that direction. The other would be to take College Drive north to Loop 287 to South First Street.
“FM 58 is also a good route for getting around the construction,” said TxDOT spokesperson Kathi White. “While this week’s work will cause some delays much of the traffic pattern will remain the same. Motorists are reminded to look for posted detour signs as work gets underway on the U.S. 59 mainlanes.”
