New pavement markings to be added to area roadways

Dozens of highways in northeast Texas to receive new features

New pavement markings will be added to over 200 miles of area roadways in the coming months, according to plans awarded in January by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT).

“We will be applying thermoplastic pavement markings to areas that were resurfaced last summer,” said Christina Trowler, Director of TxDOT Atlanta District Transportation Operations. “If the roadway does not currently have rumble strips, we will be placing rumble strips as an added safety feature to reduce roadway departure crashes.”
