Work Scheduled in Lufkin Next Week

Date:

LUFKIN – Work scheduled next week in Lufkin will have motorists looking for alternate routes.

Crews will begin mill and inlay operations on the northbound access road between FM 841/Ford Chapel Road to FM 325/East Lufkin Avenue directly in front of Lufkin High School and a nearby truck stop. Also scheduled for mill and inlay is BU 69/Denman Avenue between Timberland Drive and SL 287.
