Why are the flyover and entryway monument needed?
A flyover is needed as part of the project to alleviate substantial traffic congestion at the intersection of Gerault and FM 2499. The flyover will remove the heavy southbound Gerault to southbound FM 2499 movement from the signal, thereby significantly increasing the capacity of the intersection and reducing stopped delay. This improvement will provide motorists the option of bypassing the stop light, merging with southbound FM 2499 traffic, and continuing along the roadway without stopping.
