Fort Worth residents can weigh in on $4.5 million North Tarrant Parkway project
Fort Worth will hold a virtual community meeting Monday evening on a $4.5 million intersection project planned for North Tarrant Parkway and North Beach Street.
The meeting is scheduled for 6 p.m. Monday, August 3, 2026, through Webex. The city says the session will share construction details for the project, which remains listed as pre-construction.
What the project includes
The project is located at 4500 N. Tarrant Parkway in Fort Worth, Texas 76248, and falls within City Council District 4.
Planned roadway work includes additional eastbound and westbound left-turn lanes on North Tarrant Parkway, a northbound left-turn lane, and southbound and westbound right-turn lanes.
The city also plans new traffic signals, pedestrian signals, curb ramps and crosswalk striping. The design calls for more robust right-turn islands at the intersection, with crosswalk striping at all four corners.
Those changes could affect how drivers turn through the intersection and how pedestrians move across it after construction is completed. The available city information does not establish specific closures, detours, construction sequencing or other traffic-control details.
Funding and timeline
Fort Worth lists the project value at $4.5 million and identifies the 2022 bond program as its funding source.
The city currently describes the work as being in pre-construction and lists June 2027 as the projected completion date. That date is a city estimate, not a guaranteed deadline.
Mondayโs meeting is an information and community-engagement event. It is not a new project approval and does not confirm that construction has begun.
What residents should watch for
People who drive through the intersection can use the meeting to seek information about future turn-lane work, signal changes and traffic control. People who walk in the area may want details about the planned pedestrian signals, curb ramps and crosswalks.
The city has not provided, in the project information reviewed for this article, a construction start date, contractor name, detailed phasing plan or confirmed lane closures and detours.
The intersection work is one project within Fort Worthโs broader transportation capital program. City transportation planning documents adopted in June 2026 describe the cityโs transportation plan as a guide for future capital investments, but Mondayโs meeting is focused on this specific District 4 project.
