An extension of PaulAnn Boulevard and Smith Street to accommodate traffic around Howard College and to encourage further development in the area has been completed.
The project, completed by local paving contractor Reece Albert under a $718,256 contract, extends PaulAnn Boulevard from the U.S. Highway 67 frontage road to the north and connects with the Smith Street extension. Smith was extended from the addition of Howard College’s new facilities at the West Texas Training Center east to PaulAnn Boulevard.
Funded with half-cent sales tax dollars administered by the City of San Angelo Development Corp., the project will help relieve a backup of traffic on Highway 67 as Howard College students pull into and out of the training center. Construction began in October and was substantially completed last month. The new roadway is open to traffic, although some improvements will continue behind the curb and off of the roadway.
