Construction started March 24 on the city of Keller’s Elm Street project, which will take three years to complete, according to an update from the city. In a nutshell According to the city o cials, the project includes improvements for both vehicular and pedestrian tra c, such as: • Widening and reconstructing the road • Improving utilities and drainage • Adding parking, sidewalks, seating, landscaping, lighting and way nding signage The project is being completed in multiple Keller Elm Street project begins, could take 3 years
phases, which is why the timeline is extended. A closer look At their June 4 meeting, Tarrant County commissioners approved an interlocal agreement with Keller to provide the city an additional $1.84 million to help complete the Elm Street project. This adds to the $5.75 million voters previously approved the county to contribute as part of the 2021 bond package, totaling the county’s contri- bution to $7.59 million of the $21.9 million project, according to previous reporting. The Elm Street project is the second phase of a plan to improve Old Town Keller. Community Impact previously reported in October 2024 that the rst phase of the project was completed. The construction coincides with the city’s preparation for the population to hit 50,000 people in the next ve years, which would add additional city costs for maintaining the roadways.
