Georgetown drivers face years of construction as new road opens
While Tucker Parkway recently opened to traffic, officials confirm that major widening and extension projects in the area will continue through 2028.

Drivers in Georgetown now have a new route to navigate, but the improvement comes alongside a multi-year schedule of roadwork. A new two-lane roadway opened to traffic on Aug. 24, officially changing the name of the stretch from CR 255 to Tucker Parkway. The route runs from CR 254 to CR 289.
While that project is finished, other major infrastructure work remains in progress. Chasco Constructors began work on the Ronald Reagan Boulevard widening Segment B in 2024. This phase involves building a two-lane southbound roadway from Hwy. 29 to FM 3405. The existing road will transition to northbound-only traffic. Officials anticipate completing this segment in late 2027.
Construction also continues on the CR 110 North extension. Crews have been working on the roadway since early 2026. The project extends CR 110 north from Rockride Lane to connect with Patriot Way at Sam Houston Avenue. Williamson County officials confirmed these ongoing efforts during a recent update.
Design work is underway for several future phases. The second phase of the RM 2243 widening, known as Hero Way, is currently in the design stage. This section will run from 183A to Ronald Reagan Boulevard. The final revised schematic is expected to be completed by summer 2028. In the meantime, the first phase of this widening remains in construction. Work began in January on the 3.5-mile stretch between 183A and Garey Park.
Designers are also finalizing plans for new ramps at the intersection of Hwy. 195 and Ronald Reagan Boulevard. The first northbound exit ramp opened on Aug. 24. Engineers are currently addressing design alternatives for the remaining three ramps. The final schematic for those structures is anticipated in fall 2027. Additionally, the preliminary design for the CR 175 reconstruction was completed in fall 2025, with final design expected in 2027.
The reconstruction of CR 175 will involve widening and rebuilding the road from south of Creek Meadow Cove to RM 2243. These updates were confirmed by Williamson County officials. The timeline for these projects spans several years, with some final designs not expected until 2028.
