The City of College Station has announced that northbound Dartmouth Street will be closed at Krenek Tap Road starting this Thursday. The closure is scheduled to last for two weeks while crews perform necessary rehabilitation work on the roadway.

During the construction period, northbound traffic will be detoured east onto Krenek Tap Road toward State Highway 6. Motorists should plan for alternative routes during this time to avoid delays associated with the detour.

Southbound Dartmouth Street will remain open to traffic throughout the project. However, southbound drivers should anticipate reduced capacity, as only one lane of through traffic will be available in that direction.

The city has not specified the exact end date for the closure, noting only that the work is expected to take two weeks from the start date. Drivers are advised to monitor local traffic updates for any changes to the schedule or additional restrictions as the project progresses.

This infrastructure improvement is intended to address maintenance needs on Dartmouth Street. The city typically coordinates such projects to minimize long-term disruption, though temporary lane reductions and detours are standard procedures during road rehabilitation efforts.

Residents and commuters using this corridor should allow extra time for travel and be aware of the detour signage directing northbound vehicles toward SH 6.
