Military Drive including roadway improvements along the Presa corridor, ponding relief around Story Lane, Wahrmund Court and Koehler Court intersections and traffic signal upgrades. The City will design and construct the improvements leveraging funding from TxDOT. Project construction is anticipated to begin in May 2020 and estimated to be completed by October 2021.
