Construction this weekend may put a damper on your plans. NBC 5’s Samantha Davies tells you what to expect and what to avoid.
There is a lot of construction scheduled to go on this weekend across the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
All construction is weather-permitting and storms are still expected, mainly on Saturday. There may be a brief shower early in the day, but most of the storms will hit during the afternoon and evening. There is a 70 percent chance for storms with an enhanced risk for severe weather.
Here are the top three construction zones to watch out for this weekend:
