Pushback over 1,400-home development in north Fort Worth highlights infrastructure issues in growing area – NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth
SUMMARY: North Fort Worth is experiencing rapid growth and some community members are concerned that new housing developments are outpacing the infrastructure, leading to major traffic congestion. Terra Vella, a proposed 1,400-home development, faced pushback from community leaders for not addressing the area's infrastructure needs. The area currently has long wait times and traffic congestion due to the lack of sufficient roads. The developer of Terra Vella ultimately committed to building new roads in the area, and the Fort Worth city council approved the annexation request for the project. There are also plans for road improvement projects in the area to address the growing infrastructure needs.
