Latest Burleson Street snag due to railroad crossing

When voters approved Kyle’s $35 million road bond election in 2013, they were long past ready for improvements to Burleson Street.

Especially for those shy of Interstate 35, Burleson affords an alternative north-south corridor. But it hasn’t been open in almost two years and the population of Kyle has grown considerably during that time.

Seven years after that bond election the project, which has been fraught by issues including weather, may still be on tap for completion around the original projected time. That said, the required documentation surrounding the latest snag is a traffic jam all its own.
