CLAY COUNTY, Texas (KAUZ) - The Texas Department of Transportation is hosting a public hearing this evening on proposed changes to U.S. 287 in Bellevue.

In addition to this work, the proposed project would repair and resurface the US 287 northbound main lanes and shoulders from Lone Star Road to the Montague County line.

The virtual and in-person meetings will start on Thursday, November 16 at 5:00 p.m.

The in-person meeting will be at Bellevue Community Center/Fire Hall, located at 509 Franklin Street in Bellevue.
