updates

Stay up to date with the latest with the Highway 170 road project that runs through Westlake. Throughout the duration of this project, various road closures and detours will be implemented. Thank you in advance for your patience.

May 2, 2023 UPDATE

The Roanoke Road crossover on Highway 170 will soon be closing permanently in Westlake. As part of the State Highway 170 construction, the contractor will be opening new crossover bridges and u-turn lanes at N. Beach Street and Westport Parkway in the Spring of 2023. 

Once both of the new crossovers are fully open to traffic, the existing crossovers at Alta Vista Road, Haslet-Roanoke Road, and Roanoke Road will be permanently closed. Alta Vista, Haslet-Roanoke, and Roanoke will also still have access to the frontage roads (right-in/right-out) but traffic will no longer be able to go directly across SH 170 at those locations. 

Opening the new crossovers at N. Beach Street and Westport Parkway will also involve activating new traffic signals at their intersections with the Highway 170 frontage roads. As traffic patterns change in the area, we ask that you proceed with caution.

April 28, 2023 UPDATE

East and westbound Highway 170 from I-35W to Trophy Lake Drive will have various lanes closed from 8 p.m. to 6 a.m. Monday through Friday, May 1-5 for construction activities, weather permitting. Alternate routes are advised.

Following the completion of the culvert drainage improvements, the Highway 170 contractor is planning to reopen the section of the westbound 170 frontage road between Parish Lane and the Roanoke Road exit ramp on Friday, March 31st (weather permitting).  The westbound exit ramp from 170 to Parish Lane will also be reopened as part of this traffic pattern change.

November 8, 2022 UPDATE

There is work currently underway on the eastbound frontage road of Highway 170 that may impact your drive. The contractor is removing existing concrete pavement and will excavate and install new culvert boxes.  This has caused the eastbound frontage road (EBFR) just past Roanoke Rd. to be closed. Weather permitting, this closure is estimated to continue through the end of this month or early next month.

• Next week on Thursday, November 17th the westbound (WB) exit ramp just east of Roanoke Road is scheduled to close to continue installation of the same drainage culvert.  WB traffic coming from SH 114 will be forced off to the frontage road at the Parish Lane exit.  Weather permitting, this closure is estimated to last through the end of this month or early next month as well.

• The final closure will involve getting the culvert across the westbound frontage road.  This impact will be to close the WB frontage road east of Roanoke Road.  However, this closure will not be allowed to start until the WB main lane entrance ramp east of Parish Lane is completed.  This is still a little while away from that happening since that entrance ramp has not been paved yet.
