FM 1886 to Azle Avenue/Merrett Drive
A widening project to improve mobility, capacity and safety on State Highway 199 from Farm to Market Road 1886 to Azle Avenue/Merrett Drive is substantially complete. The project constructed bridges 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 were also constructed.
The project also constructed a new bridge over Lake Worth while keeping the existing bridge in service as a frontage road bridge. Mainlanes were also added east of the bridge.
The $104 million project reached substantial completion in April 2026.
