The section of Southwestern Boulevard from Raintree Drive to Davidson Ranch Road closed Nov. 11 to begin Phase 1 of a construction project that will transform the road into four lanes, according to a city of Georgetown email.
Traffic on Southwestern Boulevard will be rerouted to use Davidson Ranch Road and University Park Drive, and drivers can also use SE Inner Loop to reach Churchill Farms Drive, which turns into University Park Drive.
The $6 million project is funded through Georgetown’s 2015 transportation bond, according to the email.
