Debbie Lane is a major east/west arterial roadway. This project consists of widening Debbie Lane, from the City of Arlington/City of Mansfield city limits to State Highway 360, from two lanes to four lanes with a divided median to increase capacity and mobility, reduce congestion, and enhance safety. This project will improve continuity of the corridor by connecting to existing four-lane divided median roadways on both ends of the project. Pedestrian safety will be enhanced with new sidewalks along both sides of the project corridor and new streetlights within the median. This project includes completely reconstructing the two-lane county type road, installing a new storm sewer system, new sidewalks, new streetlights, water and sanitary sewer connections, pavement markings, street signs, communication conduit, traffic signals at Tabasco Trail, Collins Street, Lost Canyon Trail, Glenn Day Drive/Ragland Road, and RaceTrac Drive intersections, and median landscaping and irrigation. This project will be design and constructed to match the requirements in the City of Arlington’s 2017 Thoroughfare Development Plan.
This project is funded by the City of Arlington and the Tarrant County Commissioners Court through the Tarrant County 2021 Transportation Bond Program.
Paving on Debbie Lane is largely complete. Crews are now focused on several remaining components of the project, including completing sidewalk work, and placing topsoil and sod.
A public meeting to learn more about this project was held on Thursday, June 15, 2023 from 6:00pm to 7:00pm in the cafeteria at the Della Icenhower Intermediate School, located at 8100 Webb Ferrell Rd, Arlington, TX 76002. There was a short presentation followed by a question and answer session.
