Except for one unpaved section, the work on FM 2493, or the Old Jacksonville Highway, between Grande Blvd. in Tyler and FM 2813 in Gresham, appears to be complete. So ... why is there an unpaved section and when is this project going to be finished? To find out, I spoke with Vernon Webb, the Tyler Area Enginner, whose office is overseeing the project. Also, culvert work to close part of FM 2767 east of Tyler on Monday, January 21; Loop 49, Segment 2 open to traffic and free through January; Sneak preview of statewide podcast episode for next week.
