TxDOT Turn Lane Construction for Commercial and Municipal Projects
Dedicated turn lanes help prevent rear-end collisions and keep turning vehicles from blocking primary travel lanes. They also reduce congestion at entrances and create a better, more accessible environment for customers and guests.
Elite Asphalt delivers TxDOT turn lane installations that meet strict state design criteria and can handle frequent or heavy traffic.
Commercial property owners and municipal managers rely on our crew to take on turn lane construction projects for various property types, including:
- Commercial shopping centers and retail stores
- Industrial parks and high-volume warehouse entrances
- Municipal street widening and public infrastructure projects
- School zones, medical centers, and high-traffic facilities
- Residential subdivision access points along state highways
Managing every phase of construction in-house allows us to maintain strict quality control and keep projects on schedule. We build durable surfaces designed to pass state inspections and deliver lasting performance.
Left Turn Lane and Right Turn Lane Solutions
Texas roadway standards establish specific design criteria for left-turn lane construction and right-turn lane construction based on vehicle speeds and traffic volume. Our paving specialists apply the width, depth, and layout specifications required for your specific turning configuration.
Left-Hand Turn Lanes
Vehicles waiting to cross oncoming traffic must slow down and queue safely outside the primary travel lane. Our crew constructs left-turn additions with custom queue storage and extended deceleration lanes that keep traffic moving while reducing the risk of rear-end collisions.
Right-Hand Turn Lanes
When a vehicle enters a commercial driveway at a low speed, it can suddenly block fast-moving traffic behind it. We grade and pave right-turn lanes with wide entry radii and dedicated acceleration clearance, allowing heavy trucks and cars to pull off the main road without forcing trailing drivers to slam on their brakes.
