City of Bryan remembers former Bryan Mayor Mark Conlee
The City of Bryan is saddened to report the passing of former Bryan Mayor Mark Conlee. Mr. Conlee passed last night after a lengthy illness.
It may seem like this construction has been going on forever, but there is light at the end of the tunnel. In fact, that’s sort of how the phases of this project work – like moving step-by-step down a corridor, or through a tunnel, toward the goal at the end. The project is broken down by zones and construction crews are moving from west to east on WJB Parkway. Once it’s completed these improvements will provide an amazing driving, biking and pedestrian experience for everyone.
So, about that timeline…here’s the latest update from the City of Bryan and the Texas Department of Transportation on when this will all be finished. These estimates are subject to change depending on factors like the weather and material lead times, but we’re always working to get all construction projects completed as quickly as possible.

Are the lane closures permanent? No.
It may seem like the single lanes on William J. Bryan are very tight right now. And they are. But that is mainly because of all of the construction equipment and work being done, and those lane closures are only temporary.
The completed WJB project will have two lanes on each side of the new raised medians.
Now, those two lanes will be narrower than they were before construction began, but this was part of the design of the project to help with traffic calming, and to provide space for sidewalk improvements, a shared-use path, and the medians themselves. Ultimately this project makes the whole WJB corridor safer to drive on, while also making it more aesthetically pleasing.
Information on this project is regularly updated on the city’s Capital Improvement Projects webpage.
Here you can find information about the design of the improved roadway, who from the city is working on this project, contract amounts, funding sources, the design engineers, and the actual contractors doing the work.
