Todays the day.... I am getting ready to go to the opening of the new Wal-Mart Super Center, which has conveniently located itself right around the corner from my West Frisco Home. Traffic is bad right now on Eldorado and I have a feeling its only going to get worse. We did get a new traffic light on Eldorado at the side entrance to the Super Center, but no street modifications as of yet.

At the present time, the city has not acquired the right of way s need to widen Eldorado and there is no telling how long this will take. Estimates have ranged from months to years to complete the needed road modification.

Here are some pics of the opening:

I have posted the the permit information from the City of Frisco, which lists all the contractors and their address, the address to Wal Mart Stores Corp.and their local representative.
