Courtyard Drive/RM 2222

Loop 360 Projects

This project will remove the traffic signal from Loop 360 mainlanes at Courtyard Drive and construct an underpass. The project will also reconfigure RM 2222 at Loop 360 to a Diverging Diamond Interchange (DDI) and add shared-use paths and sidewalks within the project limits.

Lane closures

TxDOT asks drivers to be patient. Road signs have been placed to alert drivers of the upcoming changes. Pay attention to flaggers and traffic control. All closures are weather permitting.

Construction activity

Crews have started work to stabilize the upper limestone cliffs on the west side of Courtyard Drive adjacent to southbound Loop 360 mainlanes. An estimated 155,000 cubic yards will be excavated.

Construction takes place on weekdays between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m. and on Saturdays between 7 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Neighbors and businesses may experience an increase in noise, vibration, and dust during excavation and night work.

TxDOT asks drivers to be patient. Plan ahead and expect delays.

Schedule

The project was environmentally cleared in spring 2021. Construction is anticipated to begin in April 2026.

TxDOT’s environmental guidance requires that vegetation removal be done outside the nesting season and follow the federal Migratory Bird Treaty Act which protects nongame birds, their eggs and nests. Brush clearance was completed Feb. 2026.

Utility relocation will occur prior to the beginning of construction. Occasional lane closures may be required for utility relocation. While service interruptions are not anticipated, contact your service provider if you have any questions.
