Development update at McAnally: I-20/I-30 work, the Dean Ranch corner and Old Weatherford Road

Fort Worth Councilman Michael Crain, Parker County Precinct 4 Commissioner Mike Hale, Fort Worth planning staff, TxDOT representatives and developers briefed residents Tuesday at McAnally Middle School, The Community News reported. A Texas A&M Transportation Institute engineer speaking for TxDOT said the I-20/I-30 project between FM 1187/FM 3325 and Linkcrest Drive, due in 2028, was about 75% complete at the end of September, and the segment from Linkcrest to the west loop, including the I-30/Spur 580 interchange, due in 2030, is 60% complete. A Westwood Professional Services engineer said the dirt work at the southwest corner of I-20 and FM 1187, in Willow Park, is for a mixed-use development with about six months of traffic, water, sewer and drainage studies ahead and no users yet; he said to expect commercial uses, restaurants and maybe medical offices. Chris Bosco of Freese and Nichols said bids are out for a new Old Weatherford Road contractor after the earlier contract was nullified, and that work should resume early next year.
