The following list of Amarillo area lane closures is for the week of July 18, 2021, and was provided by the Texas Department of Transportation.
Watch for daily lane closures along the US 287/I-40 split, Monday through Thursday (July 19—22), as crews make road repairs to both the east- and westbound lanes in a mill and fill operation. On Tuesday, US 287 traffic will be detoured onto the I-40 frontage road and can connect with I-40 at the Pullman Road on-ramp. US 287 drivers should be prepared to stop and anticipate delays.
Drivers should stay alert and watch out for mowing operations along the I-40/I-27 interchange, US 87 and Amarillo Boulevard through town.
On Monday, July 19, morning, Loop 335 will be down to one-lane at Amarillo Creek bridge, between NW 9th Street and RM 1061. Traffic will be controlled by flaggers. The closure will allow crews to safely perform a core drilling operation on the bridge deck. Then, on Monday afternoon, the eastbound Loop 335 right mainlane will be closed at FM 1719 (Western Street); also allowing for crews to safely perform a core drilling operation.
Seal coat operations are planned for several roadways next week. The roads will be down to one-lane of traffic with flaggers guiding traffic through the work zones. Drivers are asked to slow down, stay alert and watch out for our crews and equipment.
On Monday, crews will be performing a seal coat operation on FM 1342 between SH 136 and FM 293.
Tuesday’s, July 20, seal coat operations will focus on FM 1342. The road will be down to one-lane between SH 136 and FM 293.
On Wednesday, July 21, drivers can expect FM 1342 to be down to one-lane between SH 136 and FM 293 while crews seal coat.
