Local Context
Texoma Pkwy is a primary north–south route through Sherman, especially near Midway Mall, where retail traffic, turning movements, and nearby access roads converge. When crashes occur in this area, lane closures can quickly affect local drivers and shoppers moving through the corridor. During Sunday’s incident, traffic was rerouted onto Fallon Dr just past the mall while responders worked the scene. Police later confirmed that the roadway reopened at approximately 4:17 p.m. after the crash was cleared.
What to Do Next
- If you were involved, move to a safe location if possible and check for injuries. Call 911 if anyone needs medical attention.
- Remain at the scene and cooperate with first responders. Leaving before police arrive can create complications later.
- If it’s safe, write down the time, location, and what you observed while details are fresh.
- Check traffic advisories before traveling through the area, as delays can develop quickly.

A: Early reports often focus on medical response and traffic control. Officials usually confirm details after speaking with those involved and reviewing the scene.
Q: Why do crashes near shopping areas affect traffic so quickly?
