WIDENING OF SECTION OF OLD CHAPPELL HILL ROAD TO BEGIN MONDAY

  

Construction activities will begin Monday on Old Chappell Hill Road from Blue Bell Road to the Collection/Transfer and Recycling Station.

Brazos Paving, Inc. will widen approximately 1,400 linear feet of existing curbed asphalt roadway to a 40-foot wide curbed concrete roadway.  Construction will consist of approximately 840 linear feet of storm sewer of various sizes and the addition of curb inlets, which the City of Brenham says will allow for better drainage.

The road will remain open during construction, so the city asks drivers to respect the work zones and construction zone speed limits.  As the Wastewater Treatment Plant and Collection/Transfer and Recycling Station are located within the construction area, the roadway will be shared with large loads for continued operation.

The widening project is expected to be completed in mid-January.  TxDOT will begin intersection work at Blue Bell Road and Old Chappell Hill Road at that time.
