"A Rude Awakening" – Week of January 21, 2008
Posted: January 18th, 2008, 9:59pm PST
Enclosure: [download]
When North Tyler assistant maintenance supervisor Ricky Alvis' phone rings in the middle of the night, it's rarely good news. Like a lot of TxDOT's maintenance personnel, Alvis is on call 24 hours per day so he and his crew can respond to any highway-related emergency in his section. Most often, those incidents occur on the Interstate. Last Monday, Alvis' phone rang in the middle of the night, calling him to an emergency on US 271 (see this week's TxDOT: Working For You video). I spoke with him later in the week about what he found when he responded to the scene and what role he played in getting the situation under control. Also this week: TxDOT plans to close part of FM 2767 this week, and highlights from this week's Town Hall meetings along the I-69/TTC corridor.
