The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will close the SH 203 and US 287 intersection in Hedley on Friday, January 17, to allow for construction of new concrete pavement in and around the intersection.
According to Childress District Area Engineer Matt Herbstritt, the closure will last an estimated two to three months, weather permitting.
“Local traffic is encouraged to utilize the railroad crossings at Bailey Street or McDougal Street, which will both remain open throughout this construction phase,” stated Herbstritt.
Turning movements off US 287 at the SH 203 location will not be allowed until the construction in the area is complete.
“As always, TxDOT reminds drivers to reduce their speed in the work zone, avoid all distractions and obey all posted warning signs,” Herbstritt said.
