EASTLAND COUNTY – Texas Department of Transportation’s contractor recently began a
resurfacing project on I-20 which spans from mile marker 340 (just east of CR 306) to mile
marker 349 (just west of Ranger). The project is approximately 9 miles long and will result in a
new surface pavement of durable hot mix in this area.

During this work, motorists should expect daily eastbound travel lane closures from mile marker
342 to 349, and possible delays. Truck traffic, especially oversized loads, should seek an
alternate route due to permit restrictions of 11-foot maximum vehicle width. This phase of
construction, performing pavement repairs, is anticipated to be complete by May 1, 2025,
weather permitting. Various entrance and exit ramp closures should also be expected during this
time; however, only one entrance and one exit ramp will be closed at a time. Ramp closures will
be limited to daytime working hours and reopened to overnight traffic. Advanced warning
message boards will be placed ahead of these closures to warn motorists.

Westbound lanes from mile marker 349 to mile marker 342, the next phase of the project, will
consist of the same pavement repair work with lane and exit/entrance ramp closures, beginning
March 1, weather and progress permitting.

The entire project is anticipated to be complete by the end of October 2025.
