UPCOMING PROJECT 4 Eldorado Parkway widening

The city of McKinney will widen a sec- tion of Eldorado Parkway from Custer Road to Orion Drive this spring. The road will be expanded from four to six lanes, including the bridge over Rowl- ett Creek. The project also includes construction of additional turn lanes at the intersection of Custer. Other improvements along the corridor are anticipated to occur simultaneously associated with the upcoming con- struction of an H-E-B, including ad- ditional turn lanes into the site along Eldorado and a new traffic signal east of Custer. Pending selection of a con- tractor, construction associated with the roadway widening is expected to begin in late spring and be completed in spring or summer 2023. During con- struction, the number of travel lanes will be reduced within the work zone. Timeline: spring 2022-spring/summer 2023 (estimated) Construction cost: $3 million (estimated) Funding sources: city of McKinney, McKinney Community Development Corp., private development
