Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 Project

The Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project is currently pouring bridge columns, filling in the abutments, pouring bridge caps, and constructing temporary haul roads. We ask that as this construction is underway please use caution and obey all warning signs related to the project. Denton County is currently completing the construction of HIlltop Road that ties into the Hickory Creek Rd Ph 3 project, and the two way traffic of HIlltop Rd is scheduled to be restored in the next two weeks. For your safety please avoid entering into the active construction areas of the project unless you are a landowner or a resident within the road closure area. If you have any questions or concerns contact Staff at Dustin.Draper@cityofdenton.com.

The section of Hickory Creek Road from Riverpass to FM1830 (Country Club) had to be closed this morning by Kansas City Southern Railway for maintenance repairs to the rail crossing to be performed. The repairs are estimated to take one day to be completed. This closure is not part of the HIckory Creek Road Phase 3 project. Staff will provide further updates as the work is completed. If you have any questions please contact Kansas City Southern Railway at (972)295-7169.

Crews have completed the electric utility relocation for the Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project. Right of way clearing and prep will begin in the next few weeks followed by followed by excavation and bridge installation, pending no major weather events. The City of Denton is in coordination with Denton County Road and Bridge as they complete the road work on Hilltop Road that ties into the Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project. Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 is still on schedule to be complete by Q4 2024. If you have any questions please do not hesitate to reach out to us with the Ask A Project Manager with the project page, or at Dustin.Draper@cityofdenton.com.

The Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project has scheduled for the first part of November the power line raising to be completed as part of the project. The structures for the transfer of the electric line have been completed and are awaiting the scheduled approved timing. As this line is a transmission line and not a distribution line residents in the area should not experience any power outages.

The Hickory Creek Road Phase 3 project is currently having utility relocations done as the project is getting ready to start construction in Q3 2022. If you would like to get the most current project updates please sign up for the project email alerts.
