Traffic on U.S. 77 between Main Street and Farm-to-Market Road 1685 will be switched onto the new road today!  Work crews will restripe the area to guide drivers into the new lanes. This will allow construction crews to close the old road and bridges for repair, which will take a year to complete. After the work is complete, all four lanes will be open to traffic. Weather permitting, today's traffic switch will occur during the morning hours. The road project will widen U.S. 77 to four lanes and improve the bridge over the Guadalupe River. TxDOT is asking drivers to continue to be cautious in the construction zone. If this is in your commute please be cautious!
