April 14 16, lane closure on SH 199 EB Lake Worth Bridge Project

The contractor for the SH 199 Lake Worth bridge project is scheduled to close the left lane of eastbound SH199 between FM 1886 and Rankin Road on Monday, April 14 - Wednesday, April 16 from 9 AM - 3 PM each day (weather permitting) for bridge beam installation at Rankin Drive. Motorists should expect delays. Alternate routes are advised.

Construction on the SH 199 project from FM 1886 to Azle Ave began October 5, 2021. As part of this project, a new bridge over Lake Worth will be constructed. The existing bridge will be kept in service as a frontage road bridge. New SH 199 mainlanes will also be added east of the bridge. Bridges will also be constructed at Rankin Street, Surfside Drive, Love Circle, Hodgkins Road and Azle Avenue while reconstructing and widening SH 199 from four to six lanes west of the Lake Worth crossing. The frontage roads in this area will also be reconstructed. The project was awarded to Sema Construction, Inc. and is estimated for completion in 2024.
