How will the new lanes affect traffic?
The addition of two lanes to Morriss and Gerault will provide the necessary near-term capacity to accommodate planned growth in the corridor and to serve as an alternate north-south corridor for Flower Mound residents. Planned improvements to the intersection of Gerault at FM 2499 will also improve access to the scheduled improvements on FM 2499 associated with the DFW Connector project. In addition, improvements to the interchanges of SH 121 at Freeport Parkway and Grapevine Mills Parkway will result in the Gerault-to-Lakeside-to-SH 121 route being a viable alternative to FM 2499 for Flower Mound commuters.
