The Pearland Parkway Traffic Circle has begun Phase 1 of construction and is closed to drivers. The project construction began on May 27, 2022 and closure is expected to last from three to four weeks.
This closure will impact traffic from Pearland Parkway North to McHard Rd West and McHard Rd East to Pearland Parkway North.
TX 35 is the suggested alternate route. The City of Pearland reminds all drivers to plan accordingly to avoid travel delays.
Mayor Kevin Cole addressed the construction at the recent State of the City given at the Pearland Chamber of Commerce monthly luncheon.
According to Cole, the reconfiguration will improve traffic flows by providing higher speed by-pass movement and reduce existing two lane configuration conflicts. Traffic analysis of accidents from this area indicate changes will reduce injury accidents without a need to add traffic signals that impede traffic flows and increase commute times.
To help drivers plan their routes, sign up for traffic alerts at pearlandtx.gov/alerts.
