North White Chapel Boulevard has reached the 70% completion mark at the end of 2021.
In development since 2018, the North White Chapel widening project has aimed to increase the road into a four-lane thoroughfare complemented by a dual-lane roundabout. According to MySouthlakeNews.com, the widening project had northbound concrete lanes placed last week, with crews beginning to pave on the intersection of Ascot Drive this week.
Ascot Drive is expected to reopen by Jan. 3, with the rest of the North White Chapel Boulevard project expected to be completed by May 2022. Alternate routes are currently available at East Highland Street and East Chapel Downs Drive.
