Under Construction

 Anderson Mill Road

The Anderson Mill Road (Phase 1) Reconstruction Project consists of the reconstruction of Anderson Mill Road from RM 1431 south to approximately Gaspar Bend.  Anderson Mill Road will be realigned in several locations and constructed as the full four-lane section on both the north and south ends of the project and two lanes of a future four lane section towards the middle portion of the project, including turn lanes at various driveways and intersections.

For the safety of workers as well as drivers and their passengers the speed limit has been reduced to 35 miles per hour for the duration of the project and will be enforced.

Roadway and utility construction continues throughout the project limits.  Traffic pattern shifts can be expected as the contractor begins to shift traffic over to new portions of the roadway which allows for reconstruction of the existing roadway.

Construction is expected to continue in 2019, however portions of the new roadway will be opened as the project proceeds.

New Hope Drive extension from Cottonwood Creek to Ronald Reagan

 The New Hope Drive extension project provides additional capacity for traffic traveling east and west through the City.

• Construction of a raised median
• Construction of a 10 foot shared use path along southern side of the roadway
• Installation of street lighting
• Installation of signal at the Ronald Reagan intersection

Fire Station #5

Fire Station #5 is a 2015 Bond Funded Capital Improvements Project (CIP) that will construct an approximately 13,250 square feet facility to house both City of Cedar Park Fire Department and Williamson County Emergency Medical Services (EMS).  The project is located near the intersection of Cottonwood Creek Trail and La Jaita Drive at 1501 Cottonwood Creek Trail.  The land for the fire station was donated by the Cedar Park Regional Hospital in 2014.

For more information read the Fire Station #5 Press Release.

Police Department Phase 2 Expansion Completed

The Police Department Building Phase 2 Expansion is a 2015 Bond Project that included a renovation and addition to the existing Police Department Building located at 911 Quest Parkway.  The building expansion is a 12,200 square feet, one story building which connects to the existing building via an enclosed corridor.  The existing building received interior renovations to create an evidentiary vehicle processing bay, modify the abandoned holding cells to accommodate additional evidence workspace, expand the women’s locker room, and create additional space for department employees on the second floor.   Additionally, on-street parking was added to Discovery Boulevard in order to provide more accessibility to the front door.

The aerial image above was taken in May 2018.  The building expansion and new parking spaces on Discovery Boulevard can been seen. The expansion project was completed in October 2018.

RM 1431"Gap" project

Construction to widen RM 1431 between Cottonwood Creek Trail and Market Street, known as the 1431 Gap Project, began in March.  It will match the same six-lane design as the recently completed section between Sam Bass Road and Market Street.

TxDOT is managing all aspects of the design and construction of this project.  The anticipated completion of this project is Spring 2019.

For the safety of workers as well as drivers and their passengers the speed limit has been reduced to 45 miles per hour for the duration of the project and will be enforced.  To view the full ordinance authorizing the construction speed limit click here.

Under Design

Bell Boulevard Realignment Project

The Bell Boulevard (US 183) Realignment Project is proposed by the City of Cedar Park with the cooperation of the Texas Department of Transportation. The project would return the current Bell Boulevard (US 183) roadway east onto the full extent of Old Highway 183, from Cypress Creek Road to Cedar Park Drive in Cedar Park. Currently, Old Highway 183 is a two-lane roadway parallel to Bell Boulevard (US 183), running generally north and south. Bell Boulevard is proposed to be realigned and relocated to the Old Highway 183 alignment and reconstructed to a four-lane divided roadway that includes a raised median with turn lanes at intersections and driveways.

New Hope Drive - Ronald Reagan to Sam Bass Road

The design of New Hope Drive from Ronald Reagan Blvd. to Sam Bass Road is a 2015 Bond Funded Project. New Hope Drive will be designed and constructed as 4-lane divided roadway with a raised median, curb and gutter, enclosed storm sewer system, illumination, shared use path, and bike lanes.    The design will include all major project components such as engineering, surveying, utility coordination, geotechnical and construction materials testing services, right-of-way acquisition services, environmental assessment, right-of-way appraisals, public involvement, and construction phase services.  The City has not identified a source of funds for the construction of this project.  However, completing the design gives the City a "shovel ready" project that would potentially be a good candidate for Federal funding assistance in order to construct the improvements.
