Overview

TxDOT is developing preliminary plans for the expansion of FM 2964 (Rhones Quarter Road) from SH 110 in the city of Tyler south to FM 346 in the city of Whitehouse. The scope of work includes widening the existing two-lane roadway to a four-lane divided highway with a continuous left-turn lane. 

Details

Enhancements include:

• Widening from a two-lane roadway to a four-lane roadway with flush medians
• Redesigning the roadway's alignments to meet current design standards
• Addressing the FM 2964/SH 110/Shiloh Road intersection in the city of Tyler
• Realigning FM 2964 with County Road 2277 at FM 346 in the city of Whitehouse
• Adding sidewalks to improve pedestrian safety
• Providing outside shared-use travel lanes for cyclists

The project will require the acquisition of new right of way from adjacent property owners.

Get Involved

TxDOT plans to host a public hearing in the fall of 2021. Meeting details will be posted to this web page as soon as they are available. Adjacent property owners will receive notification by mail. All interested citizens will have an opportunity to provide comments. The public may ask questions at any time during the project development process.

To date, the following outreach has occurred: 

• TxDOT presented the preferred alternative for public comment on Sept. 17, 2019. A copy of this alternative is available for viewing through the Interactive Map link below.
• TxDOT presented three design alternatives for public comment on March 7, 2019, at the first public meeting.
