NPD was advised today by TxDOT that Old Lufkin Rd at SW Stallings Dr (outside the loop) will be closed to traffic beginning today (Friday, 12-1-23). The closure is indefinite while the Flyover project progresses through that area. The Spradley St crossover at South St will also be closed to all traffic beginning today for bridge pillar construction.
Old Lufkin Rd and the area neighborhoods can only be accessed by W Sparadley St and the south end of Old Lufkin Rd at 59S. E Spradley St will only be accessible from the northbound traffic lanes of South St. NPD asks all motorists and residents to use extreme caution in this area and to lower their speeds considerably. With this construction, combined with DayLight Savings and the holiday traffic, NPD will be monitoring the area for speeds and is reminding motorists that the speed limits are much lower in these work zones.
Revision…..
TXDOT is leaving the northern end of Old Lufkin Rd at SW Stallings open and operational and closing the southern end of Old Lufkin Rd at South 59.
