This far north Fort Worth neighborhood will get stoplights by end of the year
Fort Worth plans to begin rebuilding the intersection of North Beach Street and Champions View Parkway in May, city officials announced during an April 16 community meeting.
Construction crews will replace four-way stop signs with stoplights and install accompanying sidewalks, crosswalks, walk signals and ramps. The city expects to finish the $2 million bond project by December 2025.
North Beach links almost 15 miles of malls, warehouses and subdivisions, connecting the eastern edge of Riverside to Texas Highway 170.
The northernmost stretches of the road, and other thoroughfares stitching together Fort Worth’s northern outskirts, have had to cope with intense population booms in recent years.
The city hopes this latest project will “improve traffic movements and provide a higher level of safety for pedestrian traffic” at an intersection in the heart of a far north residential neighborhood, only a few blocks away from Kay Granger Elementary School. City leaders had originally set aside funding for the project in 2014.
Crews plan to do most of the work between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. on weekdays. The city says traffic should remain open in all directions over the course of construction.
