Here’s what is coming on the Midtown Express

More orange cones, road closures and traffic switches are in store for Texas 183 in Euless, courtesy of the Midtown Express reconstruction project.

On Monday, the westbound 183 frontage road from Carter Drive to Fuller Drive was changed to one-way, which means there will be no more access to Short Street.

On May 16, the on-ramp from Industrial Boulevard to eastbound Texas 183 will be closed from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m. The off-ramp from westbound to Texas 183 to Industrial Boulevard will also be closed from 9 p.m. to 6 a.m.

On May 23, the on-ramp from Amon Carter Boulevard to eastbound 183 will be relocated.

On May 30, the eastbound 183 frontage road from Industrial Boulevard to Main Street will move to a new traffic pattern.

The catfish are biting at Chisholm Park pond

More catfish are coming to Chisholm Park pond, 2200 Norwood Drive in Hurst.

Texas Parks and Wildlife Department workers are scheduled to again stock the pond with channel cat on May 20 and they are available to be caught as soon as they are in the water.

Another stocking is scheduled for June 3. Both dates are subject to change because of bad weather and fish availability.

What you need to know:

  • Kids under 17 years old can fish for free, but adults need a state fishing license. There is a two-pole limit per angler.
  • The best baits to use are nightcrawlers, chicken livers, shrimp, stinkbait or sliced hot dogs.
  • There is no minimum-length limit, but there is a five-fish-per-day bag limit.
