The first phase from I-35 to Rodeo Way broke ground in November 2022. Cibolo City Council on May 28 authorized the city manager to sign an advance funding agreement in the amount of $3.4 million for the second phase of the project, from Rodeo Way to FM 78. Looking ahead Updates to the estimated start date and comple- tion time for the project will be available following the contractor’s submission of a new timeline.

TxDOT Public Information Officer Tanya Brown said in an email the organization is working to finalize plans for construction, with work expected to resume in the fall. What residents should know Brown said the plan is undergoing revisions, including sound wall utility conflict protections, which enable installed utilities to remain in place and continue service. The final revisions for this plan are expected to be completed this summer. With the delays, Brown said the new design will include all phases, and the new construction timeline will be submitted by the contractor. The full project will include the expansion of FM 1103 from a two-lane road to a four-lane road with bicycle lanes and sidewalks.
Construction begins on FM 1518 upgrades Construction on FM 1518 began June 20 between I-10 and Hwy. 78. The $73 million project will increase mobility and safety, expanding the roadway to four lanes. What else? The project will also include a 10-foot- wide shared-use path on the east side of the roadway and a 6-foot-wide sidewalk on the west side for bicycle and pedestrian access. The project will be completed in 2028.
