SH 114 and SH 121 West of Main Street
- FM 1709: Paving crews will continue work on the east and westbound SH 114 frontage road at FM 1709/Southlake Boulevard and Northwest Highway throughout the upcoming months. This will also include the Wall Street and Park Boulevard intersection.
- SH 26: Drainage work will continue in the area to assist with a series of traffic switches on SH 26, allowing NorthGate to open additional areas of work. Paving crews will also work on SH 26 north of SH 114.
- Crews have set girders, or horizontal bridge beams, over Ernest Dean Parkway as part of the new direct connector bridges. Our structures crews will continue deck work on the westbound SH 114 bridge to southbound SH 26 and the northbound SH 26 bridge to eastbound SH 114, as well as the bridge barrier. We will open both of these bridges in early summer.
- Northbound SH 121 flyover to westbound SH 114: In early spring, crews will start to pave the tie-ins to and from the northbound SH 121 flyover to westbound SH 114. This second flyover bridge is tentatively set to open in April!
- Eastbound SH 114 mainlanes: Following a recent traffic switch, NorthGate crews have started removing the old eastbound SH 114 mainlanes from FM 1709/Southlake Boulevard to William D. Tate Avenue. Lime, asphalt paving and concrete paving work will all begin in mid-to-late spring.
- The eastbound SH 114 mainlanes from FM 1709/Southlake Boulevard to William D. Tate Avenue will be completed this summer.
- Frontage roads: After recently closing the eastbound SH 114 frontage road east of FM 1709/Southlake Boulevard (U-turn), crews will begin removing the existing roadway and prepare to rebuild the U-turn. Paving work will start in early spring, and the U-turn will reopen soon after.
- We will also start the second half of the westbound SH 114 frontage road between SH 26 and Wall Street, which is set to be in its final configuration in early summer.
