Project to close lanes on two busy Longview roads

Longview, TX — Motorists driving into Longview from the south should expect delays in the coming weeks as workers complete the final phase of a resurfacing project along two highly traveled roads.

For about the next three weeks, final resurfacing will be completed along sections of Estes Parkway and Eastman Road.

Larry Krantz, spokesman with the Texas Department of Transportation’s Tyler office, said he expects the project to be finished by the week of Thanksgiving, weather permitting.

Construction of the $2.6 million project started in August 2011 and included realigning the Texas 149 intersection with Texas 322 and resurfacing between Interstate 20 frontage and the railroad tracks. It also included widening and resurfacing Texas 322 between I-20 frontage and Texas 149.
