Travelers along Texoma Parkway should get ready for some delays.
TxDOT will re-surface the roadway from Hwy 75 to Spur 503.
Construction started last Friday.
David Selman, TxDOT area engineer, said the project will cost just under $3 million.
He said it should be finished by early November.
"Folks typically, whenever they're traveling on a roadway - they like for a roadway to be nice - they travel along the roadway saying 'boy, I wish they'd fix this roadway,'" he said. "Then when we get out there and fix the roadway they're a little upset, sometimes maybe get impatient with us."
Selman said anyone driving through the area should add 10 to 15 minutes to their drive time - or just find an alternate route.
"We just ask folks to be patients and watch out for the workers that are out there," he said.
