Paving the way From the cover
The overview
Main Street road reconstruction in downtown Frisco is on track for a 2026 completion after breaking ground in July 2024, Frisco’s Engineering Services’ Director Jason Brodigan said. Frisco is investing more than $80 million into the redevelopment of downtown. The project includes repaving Main Street, a new parking garage at Elm and Third streets, and a pedestrian plaza at Fourth and Main streets. The whole redevelopment project is set for a mid- 2026 completion date. All of this work is meant to make downtown Frisco more pedestrian-friendly, Brodigan said.
Talks of downtown redevelopment have been years in the making, Mayor Je Cheney said. He said he sees the redevelopment project as an “opportunity where the city can make investments to pour gas on that re.” The key focus of street construction now is paving, Brodigan said. “You’re going to start seeing things come together,” he said. Main Street will be substantially completed in January, Brodigan said. He explained this has been one of the trickier projects for the city and that one challenge has been working with compact streets where businesses are densely populated. The parking garage will provide 451 public spaces. The goal is to help replace the on-street parking previously provided on Main Street. The pedestrian plaza will include an amphitheater, city ocials said.
