BASTROP — Crews with the Texas Department of Transportation reconfigured lanes at Edward Burleson Lane and Texas 304 during evening work June 9–10. The change adds a third southbound lane for drivers traveling under Texas 71 and turning eastbound onto Frontage Road. Officials said the update aims to ease congestion and improve traffic flow at the busy underpass. The project drew a wave of online support from residents, many calling it long overdue.
