Construction will begin this week on the State Highway 360 project from Abram Street to Kingswood Boulevard/Green Oaks Boulevard in Arlington.

The project will add an additional north and southbound mainlane, rebuild the bridge over Abram Street and rebuild various exit and entrance ramps. This $53 million project will widen the 5.4-mile section of mainlanes from three lanes to four lanes in each direction.

During construction, three lanes will remain open in each direction, and lane closures will be scheduled during off-peak hours. SH 360 will be reduced to one lane in each direction next week at night to set barriers and for striping.

The project was awarded to Fluor Heavy Civil, LLC., and it is estimated for completion in 2020.
