Richardson’s Main Street reconstruction project continues this week after a three-month pause caused by delays in utility relocation, the city announced. The construction, which extends from Greenville Avenue to just past Abrams Road, is expected to be completed in March, depending on weather conditions.
What’s happening: Oncor told the city it would begin moving overhead power lines underground starting this week, with its work expected to be complete in early February. After the power lines are relocated, the city can begin the next stage of construction, which will include adding sidewalks, street lights and trees along the south side of the street. At least one lane in each direction will remain open during construction, although traffic congestion may increase.
The big picture: The project is Phase 2 of a larger reconstruction along Main Street aimed at improving downtown infrastructure within the city’s Core District.
