Sherman, Texas -- The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) officials have announced the upcoming long-term closure of the US 75 northbound frontage road, left lane, from just south of FM 1417 to Davis Street and the entrance ramp from FM 1417 to northbound US 75. The long-term closures will begin at 8:00 p.m. on Oct. 12 until the end of 2027.

The US 75 northbound frontage road, from just south of FM 1417 to Davis Street, closure permits the construction of the new south to north U-turn bridge at FM 1417 and the new US 75 northbound exit ramp to Travis Street.

All closures are subject to being delayed/altered due to weather conditions, mechanical issues, or material supply issues.

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. Motorists 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.
