Bryant Farms Road Extension

Project phase

Upcoming events

Project updates

This project will extend Bryant Farms Road from Elm Lane to Rea Road. It will also improve the intersection of Elm Lane, Blakeney Heath Road and Bryant Farms Road and provide a signalized intersection at Rea Road and Bryant Farms Road. The project will include pedestrian and bicycle facilities, curb and gutter, an 8-foot planting strip, street lights and landscape buffers in selected areas. The project design process will include traffic analysis, storm water quality management plan and a sediment and erosion control plan.

The project will provide an alternate east-west route parallel to Ardrey Kell Road and Ballantyne Commons Parkway, which will help alleviate increasing traffic congestion in this rapidly growing area due to a high level of new development.

To be determined

The Community Investment Plan approved by City Council in 2013 calls for voters to consider approval of funding for a number of infrastructure programs. Voters approved bond financing in 2014, 2016 and 2018 and will vote on further bond financing in 2020. For this project, City staff engages the community to determine the details of what will ultimately be built. Once these details are known, the cost of the project is estimated and published.
