The Polk County Sheriff’s Office reminds residents to keep an eye open for animals that may be struggling in the extreme heat. During days of excessive heat, it is critical to check on your pet often. They may have a tether of adequate length that allows them access to food, water, and shade, but the sun shifts during the day. Their area of access may have been covered by plenty of shade in the morning but could be wide open to direct sunlight in the afternoon. In extremely high temperatures, an animal will struggle to lose excess body heat through evaporation. The situation is worsened if humidity is high or if there is no breeze.
Tell-tale signs of heat stress are: • Panting • Increased respiration rate • Increased drinking • Loss of appetite and lethargy. Here are a few important hot weather tips to keep pets healthy: • Never leave your animal alone in a vehicle. It can become like a furnace within 15 minutes inside the vehicle. Temperatures can range from 131-172 degrees. • Dogs and cats need cool, shady places during hot weather with plenty of clean, fresh water accessible at all times. • Try feeding animals in the morning or evening when it is cooler. •Try taking your dog for a walk in the early morning or evening rather than in the heat of the day. Protect your dog’s paws by walking on grass or other cooler surfaces. A dog’s paws can burn easily. • Heatstroke can be life-threatening for dogs and cats.

TRAFFIC SWITCH PLANNED IN CORRIGAN NEAR PROJECT
June 18, 2024
LUFKIN – A major construction project is scheduled for a traffic shift this week, weather permitting.
The Corrigan Relief Route, being constructed on the west side of Corrigan, will see a traffic switch Thursday, June 20, on US 59. Motorists will be moved to the outside lanes of US 59, both north and southbound at US 287 from south of FM 942 to south of Laurelia Loop, and from FM 1987 to north of FM 1987 in Corrigan. Crews will work to place barriers and temporary pavement on inside lanes through these locations.
“The Corrigan Relief Route is progressing well, and this traffic switch is necessary to move forward with construction,” said Rhonda Oaks, public information officer. “Traffic along US 59 will begin to see more equipment and workers as the project continues, and motorists should stay alert and pack some extra patience through this area.”
Construction began on the Corrigan Relief Route in late 2023 after Texas Transportation Commissioners approved the $172.8 million construction for Polk County.
James Construction Group LLC, Baton Rouge LA, is serving as contractor for the project that will bring US 59 to interstate standards with construction of new US 59 northbound and southbound lanes with controlled access around the city of Corrigan.
The 7-mile project will include overpasses at the United Pacific Railroad, US 287, and Union Springs Road; entrance and exit ramps at US 59 tie-ins, and at the US 287 overpass. The project is being built to interstate standards and will enhance safety, improve emergency evacuations, and support freight transport.
Motorists should obey all traffic control\, reduce speed, and stay alert for moving equipment and workers near the lanes of traffic through this work zone. Traffic fines double when workers are present.
For more information, contact Rhonda.Oaks@txdot.gov or call (936) 633-4395.
