Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project
The Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project is located on Hickory Creek Road from Riverpass Drive to FM-1830. To improve safety and mobility in the area, the project includes the design and construction of a four-lane extension and realignment of Hickory Creek Road from Riverpass Drive to FM-1830, and then construction of a bridge that will span Hickory Creek and remove the safety concern of the 90 degree curve from the current Hickory Creek alignment. This project is part of a larger project for Hickory Creek Road with the goal of a continuous four-lane divided road along Hickory Creek Road from FM-2499 to FM-1830.

Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project Update
Share Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project Update on Facebook Share Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project Update on Twitter Share Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project Update on Linkedin Email Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project Update linkThe Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project is currently experiencing a delay in construction due to rail road coordination and the ONCOR distribution line relocation. Over the last month and a half the project area has experienced an abnormally large amount of rain events. This has delayed ONCOR from being able to relocate the distribution line as most areas of the project have been inaccessible due to the rain. ONCOR crews are currently on emergency response with the storms over the last few weeks as well. As soon as the ONCOR crews are off of emergency response the relocation will begin. City of Denton staff is also coordinating with the railroad to get the project on track. Please use caution and observe all work zone signs while in the Hickory Creek RD area.
