High Ridge Court & Thorntree Court — Existing chipseal cul-de-sacs are expected to be replaced with concrete beginning in mid-to-late September.
Cockrell Hill Road — Repairs from the northern city limits to Nob Hill are scheduled to begin September 8.
Additional repairs along Cockrell Hill Road from Nob Hill to Main Street and Circle Drive could begin around early October if approved as part of the 2026-2027 fiscal year budget.
