After a winter slowdown, the city of Plano is moving full speed ahead with several asphalt overlay projects aimed at improving road conditions throughout the city. These updates are part of the city’s larger commitment to infrastructure maintenance an often-overlooked factor that can influence property values and neighborhood appeal.

What’s Happening on Plano Roads?
The asphalt overlay projects are focused on resurfacing and repairing roadways to extend pavement life and improve driving conditions. Crews have resumed work on key thoroughfares now that temperatures are high enough for asphalt paving, with additional areas scheduled for repair throughout the summer.

Why Infrastructure Matters for Homeowners
Smooth, well-maintained streets don’t just make for a better driving experience they can also improve the overall livability and perception of a neighborhood. That, in turn, can affect property values and, over time, appraised home values. For Plano residents, especially those near ongoing or upcoming projects, it’s worth noting how improvements may influence future property tax assessments.

Where Projects Are Underway
City officials have prioritized locations based on road conditions and traffic flow, ensuring that high-need areas receive attention first. These asphalt overlays are part of an annual program, funded through Plano’s capital improvement budget, to maintain city infrastructure as growth continues across Collin County.

Infrastructure updates like Plano’s asphalt overlay program are a sign of a city investing in its future and that can have ripple effects for local homeowners. As neighborhoods improve, property values may rise. If you believe your property has been over-appraised due to these or other local developments, TexasPVP can help you protest your property taxes and ensure a fair valuation.
