The first phase of the FM 1385 road project was approved for more than $38.2 million in state funding.
The money will fund Phase 1 of three to widen FM 1385 from two lanes to six and ease heavy traffic congestion from U.S. 380 to Union Park Boulevard.
“Denton County cannot continue to grow at this pace without the necessary infrastructure investments,' State Rep. Jared Patterson stated in a press release on Aug. 26. 'Today's announcement is an important step, but it is not the finish line. I look forward to continuing to work with TxDOT, Denton County, local officials and our community to make sure FM 1385 moves forward and we continue addressing transportation needs across the district.”
