• Fluor and Balfour Beatty Open $677M Oak Hill Parkway (constructionowners.com) — Drivers traveling between Lakeway and Austin now have a fully opened Oak Hill Parkway, adding extra lanes, new flyovers, and safer intersections along U.S. 290 and SH 71. The upgraded corridor is designed to ease congestion for Lakeway, Bee Cave, and Dripping Springs commuters, with final landscaping and finishing work continuing through late 2026 but all main lanes already open to traffic.
