the NB SH 121 off-ramp so traffic from US 69 can go that way to Pearl St and also enter the Rock Yard that way. We have done study counts on the intersections on the ramps with SH 121 and US

Bonham neighborhood park receiving new equipment
Trois Murphy, KTEN / BONHAM, Texas - Bonham city staff are refurbishing and upgrading playground equipment at Catron Park. The land was originally donated to the city to be used for water wells. It was later developed into a Catron Park in the 1930’s. The city received a donation in December of last year from the M.W. and Fair Miller Foundation Inc., a Bonham based non-profit that supports community initiatives. Almost a year after receiving the funding, crews have begun taking out the original park equipment, leaving behind a salvageable swing-set to remember the history of the playground. Ronny Hill, the Bonham parks superintendent says, “This is a good park with a lot of space, the improvements that we're gonna make I think it will probably be a really nice playground for the kids in the neighborhood." The $30,000 park renovation will feature ADA compliant swings, character spring riders, along with new borders and mulch fall zones. The 40 person capacity playground will be geared towards children ages 2 to 12-years-old. The project is expected to be completed in January of next year.
