The city of Keller is undergoing a beautification process on different stretches of medians on Keller Parkway/FM 1709.

The process involves adding plants on the medians throughout the city.

The details

Phase I of the project is currently under construction and is funded by the Texas Department of Transportation through a $400,000 grant.

The first two medians on Keller Parkway at US 377 have been completed and a third median will begin construction in the next few weeks, Rachel Reynolds, Keller’s communication and public engagement manager, said in an email.


What’s next?

Phase II of the project will complete the design and construction of the remaining medians on Keller Parkway to the city’s eastern border.

The city will use a TxDOT grant of $600,000 to help pay for the second phase of the project. Reynolds said the city’s architect submitted 60% of the plans to TxDOT officials for their review in February.

If everything goes according to plan, the city will bid the project this spring and potentially see construction run from summer to fall 2025.
