NOW OPEN! 👀👏 The Wyoming Springs extension is officially complete!
The new four-lane divided roadway connects Creek Bend Boulevard to FM 3406 (Old Settlers Boulevard) via a bridge over Brushy Creek and includes shared-use paths for pedestrians and cyclists.
The extension provides another north-south route on the west side of Round Rock and is expected to reduce congestion on FM 3406, Sam Bass Road and Creek Bend Boulevard. The project has been part of the City’s Transportation Master Plan since 1999 to accommodate growth in the area.
The roadway was carefully designed to minimize environmental and community impacts along the Hairy Man corridor. Efforts to preserve the existing landscape included avoiding tree removal where possible, using retaining walls and tree wells to protect root zones, and following the natural terrain.
The final design was shaped by extensive coordination with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and community feedback gathered during public meetings in 2020 and 2021.
