The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has announced plans to close part of U.S. Highway 75 this week in order to convert existing HOV lanes into “Technology Lanes.” This project, expected to last three years, will begin with the northbound Central Expressway HOV lane closure between the President George Bush Turnpike/SH 190 and the Sam Rayburn Tollway/SH 121 starting at 9 a.m. on Friday, June 7.
The conversion will involve removing the pylons that separate the HOV and general lanes, restriping the HOV lanes, and adding dynamic messaging signs, overhead signs, high-mast lighting, and a reconstructed center barrier. Once completed, the Technology Lanes will allow high-occupancy vehicles, low-emission vehicles, motorcycles, and single-occupant vehicles to use the lanes for 22 hours a day. During the two hours from 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. southbound and from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. northbound, the lanes will be reserved for HOV vehicles, low-emission vehicles, and motorcycles only.
The entire project is estimated to cost $58.8 million and is expected to be finished by 2026
