Relief could be on the horizon for Prosper residents traversing FM 1385.

What happened: The Texas Department of Transportation has added $38.2 million for construction of FM 1385 to its ten-year plan for transportation projects, said Travis Campbell, director of transportation, planning and development for TxDOT’s Dallas district.

Keep in mind: The Unified Transportation Program is a plan, not an official allocation of funds, so it is subject to change, he said.

Looking ahead: Based on the 2027 program, construction on FM 1385 would not start until at least 2030, per the presentation.

Quote of note: “We are aggressively looking for ways to accelerate this project,” Campbell said.

Heavy rainfall and potential flash flooding will threaten large parts of Texas this week, Gov. Greg Abbott told reporters Sept. 28.

The overview: The governor pointed to severe flooding that occurred in South-Central Texas in mid-July, damaging property, sweeping cars off roadways and killing two people. This week's storms will impact "a far more vast portion of the state" than the July flooding, he warned.

The details: Abbott said heavy rains will "really dramatically affect" the majority of the state on Sept. 30, and the National Weather Service noted that "North-Central Texas is a particular concern."

"We don't have the information needed right now to advise Texans on exactly what's going to happen in our rivers," Abbott told reporters. "I can tell you this, however: Everyone should expect the rivers to rise."
