TxDOT is evaluating the four-lane undivided section of US 82 from the Archer County line to FM 369 in Wichita County. Planned improvements include updating the roadway to current design standards and providing a safer roadway for the traveling public.

Project Information

The 4.5-mile project extending from the Archer County line to FM 369 includes:

• Widening the roadway to a 5-lane configuration
• 2-12 ft. travel lanes in each direction
• 16-ft. Continuous left center turn lane.
• 10-ft. shoulders in both directions.
• New right of way 

Due to accidents in the area, citizen concerns with the 60-mph posted speed limit, and numerous intersecting driveways, TxDOT began looking at ways to improve this stretch of roadway. Some citizens would like to widen the existing road; others prefer a four-lane divided roadway on a new alignment away from the existing road; however, after public involvement activities and receiving input from local citizens, TxDOT has decided to widen the existing roadway. TxDOT is working with engineering consultant Kimley-Horn to develop a schematic to widen the existing roadway. 

Schedule

Stakeholder meetings were held in the Summer and Fall of 2016 followed by a public meeting on Feb. 9, 2017.
