HCNotes: FM 317 is going to take some time

I am posting this again for those who may have missed it … but the news isn’t encouraging for people waiting for repairs to FM 317 near the Fish and Game Club Lake. The road was damaged extensively during torrential rains in May.

The TxDOT District Office in Tyler issued a press release on Friday saying: “The road will remain closed to traffic indefinitely as stabilization work is conducted and plans for a permanent repair to the dam are developed. This job is being coordinated with the Corp of Engineers and the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ).”

So it looks like we’ll have to keep going around for now.
