Design process kicks off for Teel Parkway construction in Prosper

A section of the Prosper road Teel Parkway is headed for construction.

The gist

Prosper Town Council members approved an $806,740 contract for designs related to construction on a portion of Teel Parkway during a Sept. 10 meeting.

The project is to design two Teel Parkway southbound lanes from just north of its intersection with First Street, to its intersection at Freeman Street as part of the town’s infrastructure improvements along the road. This includes paving, drainage improvements, building a retaining wall and sidewalks, as well as median landscaping.

The designs are projected to take around a year to finish, according to meeting documents. Construction is expected to begin in winter 2026 and finish in summer 2027, according to the town’s capital improvement project dashboard.

What else?

The funding for the contract comes from two places, according to meeting documents. The first $800,000 is budgeted for in a town account and the remaining $6,740 will be funded with capital improvement project savings.
