Drivers who use Marine Creek Parkway at Northwest Loop 820 in north Fort Worth have about two weeks before crews return to the intersection.
The second phase of improvements there is set to begin Nov. 30 and wrap up in August 2027, city staff said at a Nov. 9 public meeting, according to notes from a Fort Worth Report Documenter published Saturday.
The project is meant to ease congestion and make the crossing safer. Plans call for added turn lanes, updated traffic signals, rebuilt medians, and reconstructed sidewalks and curb ramps that meet Americans with Disabilities Act standards.
Order of work
Crews will work in stages, the Report's notes say: first the Loop 820 frontage roads, then Marine Creek Parkway itself, and finally the pedestrian improvements.
The first phase, now finished, added an eastbound U-turn lane along with trail work on the east side of Marine Creek meant to connect to a future park.
The city's project page lists the work as project 101585, paid for with 2018 bond money and federal funds, and shows Phase 2 in pre-construction.
