What is happening at Fair Oaks Parkway???

Here's the scoop..as you are aware, the intersection at Fair Oaks Parkway at I-10 is not in its final configuration but once complete, many of the concerns we have heard will be addressed.

As of now, motorists will not be using the current right turn from the westbound frontage road to go onto Fair Oaks Parkway, but motorists will have their own designated right turn lane. Lanes will be 12' wide when completed which is the same width as the mainlanes. The final overlay starts today. We just ask for a little patience while we get through the final leg of the project.

Also, the turning movement on the north side of the interstate will be eliminated with the next project that has already let. The next project, which is anticipated to begin this fall, will convert the frontage roads from Fair Oaks Parkway to Scenic Loop to one-way. However, the anticipated lane shift will allow for traffic to make the left turn onto Fair Oaks Parkway.
