Reconstruction of SCR 1210 for Drainage Improvements

Update 9/20/2023:

Reece Albert will be replacing the pipe culvert structures under the roadway at the intersection of WCR 113 and SCR 1210. This involves closing the intersection temporarily for removal of current structures and installation of new structures, then rebuilding the intersection in that area.

 During construction, all traffic will need to use WCR 116 to enter and exit the area east of SCR 1210, as shown on the map. The detour route to reach WCR 113 is highlighted in green on the map. North and southbound traffic on SCR 1210 will be open as usual.

 We expect this work to begin immediately after the work is complete on the west side of SCR1210 and will be complete in about 5 days.

 Please follow all traffic devices in the area and expect delays.

Midland County is announcing the reconstruction of SCR 1210 for drainage improvements.

This project includes removal and replacement of the asphalt and introduction of new, and larger, drainage structures throughout the limits of the project. The limits of this work are from I20 service road south to the Dollar General.

This work is being done while TxDOT will be working on the new overpass at I20 & Midkiff.

Traffic will be one-lane, two-way traffic during construction hours.

Work will begin on July 5, 2023, and is scheduled to be completed in December of 2023.

***Note: this is a TxDot project***

Midkiff and Cotton Flat Roads will see significant detours along Interstate 20. Cotton Flat Road bridge demolition will begin December 16, 2022.

In preparation for this demolition the Cotton Flat Rd bridge crossing I-20 has been closed. During nighttime demolition, the main lanes will be closed with traffic diverted to the frontage roads, then shifting traffic back to the main lanes with night time service road closure to complete the demolition.

The Midkiff bridge will soon follow with closure and demolition early in 2023. 

While work is being done, its recommend that drivers coming  from East take Rankin Hwy to CR 140 to access anywhere south of I-20. For drivers traveling west, its recommended that they use CR 1232 to CR 140. 

Midland County will begin reconstruction of SCR1270 Phase 2 beginning on January 5, 2023 with expected completion in January of 2024. Limits of construction begin at CR160 and move south 2 miles to the end of the road.

Construction will be done in two “phases”, with the first phase being CR170 to the end of the roadway, and the second phase being CR160 to CR170.

During phase 1, road south of CR170 to end of road will be local traffic only and will be 1-lane 2-way traffic.

During phase 2, traffic will be detoured east along WCR160 to SCR1265 to WCR170. Road will be closed from WCR160 to WCR170 during construction. SCR 1270 south of WCR 170 will re-open after phase 1.

The project consists of complete removal and reconstruction of the driving surface for the limits of construction.  Including introduction of drainage ditches on either side of the road and reconstruction of the driveways and intersections within the limits.

UPDATE 8/31/2023:

The intersection of ECR 120 and SCR 1180 will be under construction beginning Friday, September 8, 2023. Eastbound traffic on CR 120 will be detoured onto SCR1182 to ECR121 and to SCR 1180. Westbound traffic on CR120 will be detoured onto SCR 1156 to ECR 119 and to SCR 1180. To avoid this construction, thru traffic can use ECR 130 as it provides thru access from SH 349 to FM 1213. There will be temporary traffic lights to allow for safe travel north and south at the intersection of SCR1180 and ECR120 as only one lane will be open during construction. We estimate construction to be complete in 4 weeks.

ECR 120 between Rankin Highway and SH 158

Midland County is pleased to announce the reconstruction of ECR 120 Ph 1.  The project limits are on existing CR 120 from Rankin Highway to FM 1213 (or 5 Points at SH 158).  The project will be constructed in two phases.  Phase 1a from Ranking Highway to FM 715.  The second phase (1b) will be from FM 715 to FM 1213.  The first phase from Ranking Highway to FM 715 will affect traffic by only allowing local traffic onto CR 120.  The neighborhood south of CR 120 between Ranking Highway and FM 715 will be diverted south to CR 130 for access to Ranking Highway and FM 715.  CR 1180 will have limited cross traffic north and south.  The dates for the first phase will be as follows:

Construction starts on October 31, 2022 and expected construction completion in October 2023.

Construction will not move to phase 1b until construction is completed on phase 1a.

 The project consist of complete removal and reconstruction of the driving surface for the limits of construction.  Including introduction of drainage ditches on either side of the road and reconstruction of the driveways and intersections within the limits.

Midland County is pleased to announce the Reconstruction of CR 1050 & ECR 110.

 The limits of this project are CR 1050 from the north County Line south to ECR 120, and ECR 110 from CR 1060 east to CR 1050.

 Jones Bros. is the contractor that will be performing this work. Jones Bros has begun working on NCR 1050 and will move south to Highway 307. After completion of this phase, Jones will move to CR 1050 and ECR 110 south of Highway 307. This project includes complete removal and replacement of asphalt with ditch improvements. Drainage structures on CR 1050 will be replaced with new culverts.

 Work will begin now, August 1, 2023, and is planned to be complete by October of 2024.

 CR 1050 north of Highway 307 will be open to local traffic and thru traffic will be detoured to CR 1040 via I-20 frontage road. CR1040 provides thru access from I-20 to Highway 307. County Road C1920 in Martin County is not a thru road and is not to be used as a detour route.

 While ECR 110 is under construction, the road will be open to local traffic and thru traffic is to use ECR 120 as a detour.

 CR 1050 south of Highway 307 will be open to local traffic and thru traffic will be detoured to CR 1060 during construction.
