Project Overview
TxDOT is developing plans for the expansion of US 69 (S. Broadway Avenue) from South Town Drive to south of FM 2813 in the city of Tyler. The project widens the existing four-lane highway to six lanes from Cumberland Drive south to FM 2813. Other improvements include additional auxiliary lanes at key intersections, the continuation of raised medians, and grade-separated interchanges at Cumberland Road and Market Square Boulevard.
A 2018 Feasibility Study completed by the city of Tyler, Tyler Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO), and TxDOT identified this project. The study explored potential mobility and intersection improvements to ease congestion and improve safety. In 2020, this segment of US 69 ranked #89 on the Top 100 Congested Corridors in Texas.

Get Involved
TxDOT will host two public meetings and a public hearing during its development of the preliminary design. Public feedback is a critical component of the design process. All interested citizens will have an opportunity to provide input, voice concerns, and ask questions at the first public meeting.
