Sherman, Texas -- The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) officials have announced two upcoming full closures of the southbound main lanes of US 75, beginning at Exit 63 (US 82). The closures will begin each night around 8 p.m. from August 24, Sunday through Thursday, ending the morning of August 29, Friday at 5 a.m. The closures are to place the bridge deck panels on the US 75 overpass to US 82.

Southbound traffic will be detoured at Exit 63 onto the southbound Sam Rayburn Expressway. Motorists should continue south along the frontage road, bypassing the work area on the mainlanes, and re-enter US 75 using the next available entrance ramp.

During this period, TxDOT urges drivers to exercise caution. Motorists who travel frequently in this area are asked to pay special attention to all barricades, traffic controls, and signs, and to reduce their speed as they approach and travel through work zones. They should also avoid distractions such as cell phones, eating, drinking, or car audio or navigation systems. TxDOT also asks drivers to remain alert to road crews while navigating through the construction zone.
