The purpose of the proposed project is to repair the structural deterioration of the existing US 77 Viaduct and to provide better mobility through downtown Waxahachie.

Proposed Improvements

Proposed improvements include the following:

• Rehabilitation of the existing US 77 Viaduct
• Construction of a new parallel bridge to the west of the viaduct
• Reconstruction of the existing US 77 (Elm Street) to carry all northbound traffic and Monroe Street to carry all southbound traffic through downtown Waxahachie. Known as a couplet system, the one way streets would tie-in to the existing and proposed bridges.
