\t\t\t\t\t\t\tThe Southwestern Boulevard project, which constructed a two-lane road from Raintree Drive to Southeast Inner Loop in Georgetown, is complete.<\/p>\n

City and county officials celebrated the road\u2019s opening with a ribbon-cutting ceremony March 18.<\/p>\n

About the project<\/p>\n

This half-mile segment of Southwestern Boulevard has two lanes with a center turn line, right-turn lanes at intersections, as well as utility work and curbs.<\/p>\n

The $3.5 million project was funded by voter-approved Williamson County<\/a> and city of Georgetown<\/a> bonds.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is an important connection for us on the southern side of Georgetown, and it\u2019s also a critical connection for Williamson County,\u201d City Manager David Morgan said at the ceremony.<\/p>\n

In case you missed it<\/p>\n

The new road segment will allow access to the new Williamson County Administration Building<\/a>, currently under construction.<\/p>\n
