In the SH 26 project area in Colleyville, motorists can expect to see increased construction activity along the entire limits of the project. South of Glade Road crews continue to place concrete traffic barriers and perform bridge work on the Little Bear Creek bridge, including the drilling and pouring of shafts. Additional construction activity north of Glade has included the placement of temporary traffic signals and traffic-control devices and installation of temporary pavement at various locations along the project limits. Future construction activities will include milling and removal of old pavement along the west side of SH 26 from near Centerpark Drive to John McCain Road. The project is widening the roadway from John McCain to Brown Trail.

At the intersection of FM 1938 and FM 1709 in Southlake, where construction is significantly completed, some daily lane closures during off-peak periods can still be expected to finish work in the medians, around the perimeter of the intersection and to install permanent traffic signals. North of the intersection, crews have been performing landscaping and continue to reconstruct the new northbound and southbound lanes, which includes a new retaining wall located along the west side of FM 1938. Construction is also continuing on some of the side streets—Wildwood Way and Brookforest Drive—connecting from the west side of FM 1938. The project is widening the roadway to two lanes in each direction with raised curbed medians and will expand the intersection at FM 1709 so there will be two left-turn lanes in all directions.
