We made it, y'all! The last portion of Sam Bass Road is now OPEN to thru traffic!
(That sound you hear in the distance is the giant sigh of relief at City Hall.)
We deeply appreciate the patience of our community while we've worked for the last year and a half to improve our roads throughout the city. We know it's been a headache, but we think the end result was well worth the inconvenience.
DISCLAIMER: PLEASE OBSERVE POSTED SPEED LIMITS AND USE GOOD MANNERS ON THE NEW ROADS. We know it's tempting to go fast on a nice smooth surface, but these are roads, not racetracks. Your neighbors and the Willow Park Police Department thank you.

• Work on Sam Bass Road to begin Oct. 30, Willow Park City Website, 25 October 2023
Kings Gate Road is now open to two-way traffic.
The completion of Kings Gate brings us to the final stage of the 2022 Street Improvement Project: Sam Bass Road. Sam Bass will be reconstructed in concrete but we will have to completely close down portions of the road during the work.
If you live on Sam Bass, you will still be allowed to travel in and out of your homes. But if you're using Sam Bass as a way to travel through town, you're going to need an alternate route. We recommend Ranch House Road > Trinity Drive > Sam Bass Ct as the detour during Phase 1.
Weather permitting, work should begin Monday, Oct. 30. Once Phase 1 is complete, we will begin Phase 2 (more information on Phase 2 to come later).
This is the LAST road we are doing as part of this project. We appreciate the patience of our residents, businesses, and visitors as we work to make Willow Park better for you.
