Pharr, Texas – The City of Pharr and the Pharr Engineering Department are pleased to announce the opening of North Fir Avenue, a crucial addition to our transportation infrastructure aimed at improving traffic flow and providing an alternative route for commuters.

A ribbon cutting commemorating the opening of the new stretch of road will take place on Monday, March 4, 2024, at 11:30 am. The road will be accessible shortly after the ceremony.

“The City of Pharr is proud to invest in our infrastructure needs, providing our residents with safer roadways,” said Mayor Ambrosio Hernandez, M.D. “This project, which was paid through city funding, is now complete and the roadway will be open in Pharr beginning on March 4th,” added Mayor Hernandez.
