FM2499 Section II
Project Description

Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), recently began a project to add two lanes to the existing center median of FM 2499, resulting in a six-lane divided thoroughfare from Spinks Road to FM 1171.
The FM 2499 Improvement Project is fully funded.
Construction of the four-phase project began on Monday, October 23 and will continue for 20 months.
The phases are as follows:
1. Spinks to Lake Flower
2. Lake Flower to Forest Vista
3. Forest Vista to Surrey Woods
4. Surrey Woods to FM 1171
Project Status
•The TxDOT contractor began the project by re-striping the section of FM 2499 between Spinks Road and FM 3040 to saw cut the pavement and to make room for low-profile traffic barriers. This will ensure the safety of both motorists and construction workers, while minimizing impacts on traffic flow.
• Phase I & II of FM 2499 Section II is anticipated to be complete April 2007.
