of Parker Road. In support of this project, the Wylie City Council approved a 2021 Bond Program that outlined
funding for improvements to Park Boulevard from Country Club Road(FM 1378)to Parker Road(FM 2514). Since

Road.

the schools is part of the warrant study. There are plans for a trail along this corridor in the Parks plan which is also
