SH 26 Phase 1
All main lane paving on SH 26 as well as the Pool Road/Brumlow Avenue intersection is scheduled to be complete by mid-July. There will continue to be intermittent traffic delays because of lane closures during July while landscaping work is being done in the parkway and medians. Phase 1 of the project runs west from Pool/Brumlow to John McCain Road in Colleyville. The purpose of the project is to reconstruct the road to keep up with future traffic demands. Phase 2 of the project, from John McCain to Brown Trail, is expected to begin next year.

FM 2499 lane and bridge work
Although flooding from Lake Grapevine delayed construction by NorthGate Constructors for several days in June, the project is still expected to be complete in January. As of July, crews are working on the north portion of the Grapevine Mills Boulevard bridge. When complete Grapevine Mills Boulevard will have eight lanes and a Texas U-turn on the north side. Crews are also performing drainage, grading and wall work on the new, lowered FM 2499 main lanes throughout the project. The new main lanes will run underneath overpasses at Stars and Stripes Way and Grapevine Mills Boulevard in Grapevine.
