Exciting Improvements Coming to Old Town Keller The next fiscal year will bring many exciting projects to the City of Keller, one of these projects will be an estimated $3.6 million investment in Old Town Keller. With construction expected to begin early next year, the project will include a five block pedestrian promenade running north-south from Starbucks to Pecan Street, more than 150 additional parking spaces, pedestrian wayfinding signage, railroad themed entry portals, and permanent and rotating artwork throughout the promenade. These enhancements will provide an entertaining place for the residents of Keller and visitors to spend their time. TxDOT and the City are also discussing a traffic signal at Hwy. 377 and Olive Street that would allow vehicles to turn left and pedestrians to safely cross Hwy. 377 within Old Town. The project is expected to be complete in fall 2016.
