Main Lane Demolition from Keller Springs to Dooley to Begin

Posted 2/22/2023 6:00 PM

The Town of Addison is continuing the Main Lane Paving Phase of the Midway Road Revitalization Project, main lane pavement demolition in the northern segment of the Midway Road Revitalization Project will begin the week of February 27. The southbound lanes from Keller Springs Road to Dooley Road will be closed and all traffic will be moved to the northbound lanes.

The traffic configuration will have one lane of traffic in each direction and a continuous left turn lane in the center. Drivers should pay close attention to the traffic control and lane assignments in this area and observe the location of signal heads and directional signage at the intersections.

The lime stabilization process of the main lane subgrade of Midway Road from Belt Line Road to Proton Drive is underway. After a "cooking period" the lime subgrade will be remixed and then compacted into its final configuration. Next will be the installation of the reinforcing steel and joints and finally the placement of the street pavement.

Midway Traffic Switch Planned South Side of Midway on November 1 as Work Begins on from Proton to Belt Line

Posted 10/27/2022 9:30 AM

As the main lane paving of the Town of Addison Midway Road Revitalization Project continues, the next phase is the removal and replacement of the existing pavement on the southbound lanes from Belt Line Road to Proton Drive. Traffic will be switched over to the northbound lanes Tuesday, November 1 after the morning rush hour. The traffic configuration will have one lane of traffic in each direction and a continuous left turn lane in the center.

Drivers should pay close attention to the traffic control and lane assignments in this area and observe the location of signal heads and directional signage at the intersections.

The road paving is completed from Spring Valley Road to Proton Drive, except for a couple of driveways and leave-outs that are still in progress. The medians and crossover areas will be constructed next, with street lighting, landscape, irrigation, sidewalks, ramps, and trail to follow. The contractor has made significant progress in the northern segment of the project from Keller Springs Road to Belt Line Road with the installation of the water mains, sanitary sewer mains, and storm sewer improvements. This will allow the paving operation to begin along this section sooner than scheduled.

The project schedule anticipated that main lane construction from Spring Valley Road to Belt Line Road would be completed by the end of 2022. As with any large project in an urban environment, several challenges and events, including utility relocations, inclement weather, and material/labor shortages, have delayed the paving process. The newly adjusted schedule now predicts that the main lane paving operation from Spring Valley Road to Belt Line Road will be completed by the end of March 2023, a delay of three months from what was previously communicated. The Town and its contractor are exploring options to advance construction to still meet the original project completion date of February 2024.

The Town of Addison is continuing the Main Lane Paving Phase of the Midway Road Revitalization Project, the next phase is the removal of the existing pavement and the placement of new pavement for the eastern portion of the Proton/Midway intersection.

Construction of the eastern portion of the intersection will require temporarily restricting all traffic through the east leg of the intersection. Traffic will be detoured along Midway Road and Spring Valley Road to access the eastern side of Proton Drive beginning Thursday, June 30th, and is anticipated to take 10 days to complete the work. Drivers should pay close attention to the traffic control and detour signs in this area.

Watch the Behind the Scenes video to learn more about the project and phasing.

Addison to Begin First Phase of Paving on Midway Road Revitalization Project Soon

Posted 5/20/2022 9:54 AM

The recent rains slowed the Town of Addison's Midway Road Revitalization process temporarily, but now that the construction area has dried out, and the paving crew is ready to begin the soil stabilization and paving process for the northbound lanes from Spring Valley to Proton. Addison's crew will be stabilizing the soil subgrade using a process called "lime stabilization" where a lime solution is mixed into the soil and allowed to "cook" (a chemical reaction between the soil and the lime that reduces the shrink/swell tendencies of the soil). After "cooking" for several days, the treated soil is then re-mixed and compacted to complete the stabilization process.

Next, the reinforcing steel and formwork for the pavement will be installed. Finally, the concrete will be placed and will be required to "cure" (to attain the specified compressive strength) prior to vehicles being allowed on the new pavement. After the main lane pavement is complete, the Proton intersection will require a short-term closure of the eastern side of the intersection for the construction of the intersection paving. Additional details will be provided prior to this short-term closure.

Once the northbound lanes from Spring Valley to Proton are complete, traffic will be switched over to the newly paved side and the southbound lanes from Spring Valley to Proton will be demolished and removed to allow for drainage improvements and pavement to be completed in this phase of the project. Additional details will be provided prior to the traffic switch to begin this work.

Utility crews continue to work on the installation of the new water and sanitary sewer lines north of the area being paved and the ongoing DART Silver Line construction continues just north of the Arapaho Bridge crossing.

Phasing for Midway Road Revitalization Project Revised

Posted 04/29/2022 6:42 PM

Work on the Midway Road Revitalization Project kicked off in March 2021. Over the last year, the Town of Addison has made significant progress. The video provides a behind-the-scenes look at the work currently underway.

The Addison construction team anticipates having the majority of the construction south of Belt Line Road completed by the end of 2022. The phasing for this part of the project has recently been revised to help minimize the impact on the public. The northbound lanes from Spring Valley Road to Proton Road are currently under construction. Crews will then move to the southbound lanes between Spring Valley and Proton. Once the southernmost part of the project is completed, they will move back to the northbound lanes from Proton to Belt Line and finish this segment of the project with the southbound lanes from Belt Line to Proton. The contractor anticipates spending roughly 90 days in each section.

This revision will allow for the reconstruction of the intersection at Hornet Road to be completed while Greenhill School is out for the summer and minimize the amount of construction adjacent to Belt Line Road during Kaboom Town!

Carrollton Citizens See Increased Construction at Intersection of Midway Road at Belt Line Road

Posted 3/15/2021 9:51 AM

Carrollton citizens can expect increased construction at the intersection of Midway and Belt Line Roads. Traffic lanes will periodically shift and at least two lanes of traffic will be open in all directions.

Addison's Midway Revitalization Project is expected to take six months to complete. Phase 1 involves the verification of the 24-inch water line and is expected to take two to three days. Phase 2 involves the demolition of short sections in the median, installation of temporary pavement, and is expected to take seven to ten days.

Installation of the new water lines will take three to four weeks during Phase 3, and the remaining time will be spent on the demolition and construction of street pavement.

Intersection reconstruction is expected to be completed in July, pending weather and utility delays, and contractors will then work on the section of Midway Road between Spring Valley and the completed intersection at Belt Line Road. Work in this section is expected to be completed by October 2022.

Final construction of the revitalization project on Midway Road will occur between Belt Line Road and Keller Springs Road with an expected completion date of February 2024.

The Town of Addison's construction team is working with property owners to ensure their customers have continuous access to the property during construction, and variable message boards and signage have been placed around the intersection to provide advance warning of construction activities.

Carrollton Citizens To See Traffic Impacts As Town of Addison Begins Midway Road Revitalization Project at Belt Line
Posted 2/3/2021 2:30 PM

Construction for the Town of Addison's Midway Road Revitalization Project is scheduled to begin at the intersection of Midway Road and Belt Line Road, in Addison, in the coming weeks and will remain at that location for approximately six months before moving south on Midway Road through Farmers Branch to Spring Valley Road, then north on Midway Road through Carrollton to Keller Springs Road to complete the construction. Addison expects the project to take three years to complete.

Addison voters approved a bond package in 2012 for the replacement of Midway Road from Spring Valley Road to Keller Springs Road to be funded in General Obligation (GO) bonds. The scope of the project was increased in 2019 by Addison's City Council to include water, sewer, and storm utilities, enhanced sidewalks and sidewalk updates, wider medians, a hike and bike trail along the Dallas Area Rapid Transit (DART) Silver Line Regional Rail, and enhanced landscaping to accommodate Addison's new Master Transportation Plan elements to be funded in Certificates of Obligation.

Town of Addison staff is in the process of working with its contractors to finalize the phasing and traffic plans.

Once the final plan is in place, Addison will be able to share a more definitive schedule for lane closures and traffic switches. Variable message boards will be placed around the intersection one week before any permanent lane closures are implemented.

In the meantime, there will be some non-peak hour temporary lane closures to install temporary traffic signal system components and locate buried utility lines.
