Colleyville bridge to stay closed until early 2025 The closure of Jackson Road Bridge over Little Bear Creek in Colleyville has been extended. According to an email from the city sent on Sept. 27, the Texas Department of Transportation is in the material testing phase, and the quality has to be reviewed before moving on. The new completion date is early 2025 instead of the end of 2024, according to the city. What’s happening The project will widen the travel lanes to 12 feet, providing the addition of four-foot-wide shoulders and ve-foot-wide sidewalks, according to the news release. The construction has led to a full closure of the bridge, which is located between West Glade Road and Cheek-Sparger Road. TxDOT started the $1.75 million project in January, but a utility con ict with a water line led to a delay that was resolved in May.
School zone changes coming to Southlake Two school zones in Southlake will be extended this fall. The Southlake City Council approved a request for extensions of existing school zones at Carroll Senior High School and Florence Elementary School—part of Keller ISD—during the Sept. 17 meeting. What’s happening? The change near Carroll Senior High School will be from the 100 block of S. Peytonville Avenue through the 600 block of S. Peytonville Avenue. For Florence Elementary School, the change will happen in the 100 block of Har- rell Drive to the intersection with Johnson Road, according to city documents. The speed limit will be 20 miles per hour, Public Works Director Robert Cohen said.
Construction on Jackson Road Bridge in Colleyville was slated to be nished by the end of 2024.
