Road improvements are coming to the City of El Paso. City leaders are expected to approve two different advanced funding agreements for road improvements in both northeast and far east El Paso.
The first advanced funding agreement with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) would be for creating a roundabout in northeast El Paso at Titanic Avenue and Howard Street.
This project would have a price tag of $218,885, but El Paso would be paying less than half that amount. If approved, El Paso would only pay $87,123.
The second agreement would cost El Paso $23,703 which would go to an environmental assessment and construction of a traffic signal at the intersection of Edgemere Boulevard and John Hayes Street.
The total cost of the project is expected to be $523,863.
Both agreements are part of the Highway Safety Improvement Program.
The Texas Transportation Commission has already authorized the state to undertake and fund these projects with the city’s help.
