City adding hooded turn lanes to N. Murphy Road

by | Feb 2, 2023 | Latest

The city of Murphy is taking a proactive approach by adding safety measures in an effort to prevent future accidents due to traffic and congestion and to aid those entering and exiting the shopping centers.

As of Monday, Jan. 30, and continuing for about 90 days, work crews from Greeniverse Construction, a third-party construction company, will be adding hooded left turns on North Murphy Road, just north of the intersection with FM 544, onto the commercial driveways of Murphy Marketplace, site of the Lowe’s Hardware Store and other businesses, as well as the driveways that lead to the Walmart Superstore on the west side of the road.   To Login to read the full story or to subscribe, visit https://publisher.etype.services/Murphy-Monitor
