Timeline: late March–fall Construction cost: $1.2 million Funding source: city of McKinney 3 East Louisiana Street infrastructure improvements The city of McKinney anticipates be- ginning construction on East Louisiana Street from A Hwy. 5 to Murray Street; B Andrews Street; and C Green Street as soon as late April as a catalyst in- frastructure project in east McKinney. Similar to improvements along Louisiana Street recently completed in the historic downtown McKinney area, this project will include new underground city util- ities, storm drainage, street pavement, lighting and streetscape elements. The project will also add railroad crossing safety improvements and install a sin- gle-lane roundabout connecting D Louisiana Street to Greenville Street immediately north of the future loca- tion of Tupps Brewery. Construction is anticipated to be substantially completed in the spring of 2023 and will include multiple phases to minimize changes to local trac, including at Webb Elemen- tary School.
