In the long-run, the LBJ Freeway expansion will be beneficial. As one of the most congested roadways in the nation, I-635 is in dire need of the $2 billion renovation that began last weekend and is anticipated to take five years. However, the tragic reality is that the next five years will include dangerous construction and risky driving. Both workers and passengers will likely suffer injury as a result of the expansive project and the sheer volume of traffic that will pass through the busy area.
If you’re involved in an accident on LBJ while its under construction, you should speak with the injury experts at Fears | Nachawati. While negligence is often the cause of traffic accidents, improper roadway construction and renovation may be a contributing factor, too. It’s important to consider all of the causal factors when assessing an accident and apportioning of liability. For a free consultation, call at 1.866.705.7584 or send an email to info@fnlawfirm.com.
