🚧 Traffic Alert: Southbound FM 1187 Left Turn Lane Over I-20 Partial Closure 🚧

The City of Aledo is sharing the following traffic advisory from Texas Department of Transportation:

Beginning Friday, October 16 at 9:00 a.m. through Friday, October 23 at 3:00 p.m., the southbound FM 1187 left-turn lane at the eastbound I-20 frontage road will be partially closed as part of a bridge repair project.

During this time, the dedicated left-turn lane over I-20 will have a shortened length at the traffic signal, which may result in traffic backups and longer wait times.
