Plano is about 18 miles north of Dallas. The city has released a list of eight transportation initiatives, detailing the status, costs, and schedules for each effort. The list includes projects that are currently underway, those scheduled for the near future, and one that has recently finished its primary work.
Among the active efforts, crews are conducting arterial concrete repairs along Coit Road. Public Works Community Investment Program Manager Drew Zaeske stated that the concrete work is finished and the contractor is handling minor final items. An asphalt overlay for the same stretch is planned for next summer. The project, which runs from July 2025 through July 2026, costs $1.61 million and is funded by the city.
Another ongoing effort involves sewer improvements on Shiloh Road. The city is replacing or repairing approximately 2,100 feet of sanitary sewer lines between Plano Parkway and East 14th Street. This $2.11 million project, funded by the city, is scheduled to run from February 2026 to November 2026. During construction, the eastbound outside lane on 14th Street near Shiloh Road will remain closed through July 10.
Median renovations along 15th Street are also in progress. The city will replace trees and irrigation systems between Custer Road and Mill Valley Drive, as well as from Independence Parkway to Coit Road. Park Planning Manager Katie Dunham noted that 164 new trees will be installed. The contractor is reviewing the medians to determine the starting point, with work set to begin July 15. The $371,999.15 project, funded by the city, will run through December 2026. During construction, inside lanes on both sides of the street between Custer and Coit roads will close Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Looking ahead, several projects are in the design or planning phases. Crews will pave G Avenue between 14th and 15th streets, adding on-street parking, new sidewalks, and updated traffic signals while replacing a waterline. Community Investment Project Engineering Manager Clay Lipscomb said construction is expected to start in the fourth quarter of 2026. The $374,800 project is funded by the city.
The Spring Creek Corridor Intersection Improvements will add turning lanes, concrete pavement, and barrier-free ramps along Spring Creek Parkway at several intersections. Lipscomb reported that designs are complete and easements are nearly finalized, with construction estimated to begin in 2027. The $8 million project is funded by the city.
