Highlighted Project: FM 409 Rehab WideningTo Be Constructed: FY 2016 Success Story: FM 409 is a 7.9 mile highway that meanders through the Bois d'Arc Creek Unit of the Caddo National Grassland WMA in Fannin County, TX. Currently, the pavement structure has widespread distresses and poor ride quality. Several areas along FM 409 received a "poor" distress score classification in the FY 2012 Pavement Management information System survey. This project consists of reconstructing and widening the pavement structure from 20 ft to 32 ft wide, including 5 ft shoulders to allow for bicycle lanes on each side of the road. This will be a beneficial addition as this roadway traverses Caddo National Grassland areas as well as the Coffee Mill Lake and Lake Davy Crockett areas. Partnership between TXDOT and CFLHD allowed for this addition in scope and for the widening of the roadway for alternative transportation use.
