š The 183A Toll Road Extension: Almost Ready to Roll! š§
Hey Leander and Liberty Hill, itās happeningāthe 183A Toll Road extension is in the home stretch! Youāve seen the construction for a while now, but hereās the exciting part: theyāre more than 75% done, and this project is set to open in early 2025.
What does this mean for you? No more insane traffic on Ronald Reagan (hopefully). No more crazy traffic on the frontage roads from Leander to Liberty Hill.
This $259 million, 6.6-mile extension will add new tolled lanes from Hero Way in Leander to just north of Highway 29 in Liberty Hill. Plus, theyāre not just building for carsāthereās a shared-use path coming for cyclists and pedestrians too.
In a Nutshell:
šļø 75% complete and wrapping up soon
š£ļø Early 2025 opening
š¦ No more stops at signalized intersections
š Smoother, faster commutes are almost here!
This extension is nearly ready to transform your daily drive. So, get excitedāthe finish line is in sight, and soon weāll all be cruising on the new and improved 183A!

More local news, but fast
Get the freshest updates before anyone else! Hereās whatās buzzing in the Leander area right now:
New Commercial Development at 29 and Ronald Reagan
Pretty disappointed in what we know so far. Just a generic strip mall with nothing too exciting. Someone needs to build a gym at this intersection asap!

Video of what I-35 will look like
Insane money will be invested in revamping I-35 in downtown Austin. Will probably be amazing when done (in a decade or more) and a nightmare traffic wise in the meantime.

Ronald Reagan becoming an 8-lane road!!
Weāll do a bigger write up on this at some point, but pretty crazy news. Going from the 45 near Cedar Park, all the way past Liberty Hill. Going to be a massive change for the area over the next decade.

Spotlighting local businesses we love
Crunch Fitness
1335 E Whitestone Blvd, Cedar Park, TX 78613
Have you checked out Crunch Fitness in Cedar Park yet? They completely revamped the old Goldās Gym in the Target center, and made it a top of the line facility.
ā¢ All brand new equipment
ā¢ 24 hours, 7 days a week
ā¢ massage chairs, red light therapy, tanning beds
ā¢ tons of classes, including boxing!
ā¢ itās huge (although already pretty crowded at peak times)
ā¢ and most importantly, child care! (although please, open it Sunday mornings Crunch, youāre killing us over hereš)
This Crunch has been crazy busy since it opened a couple months ago, but for good reason. Itās the best mainstream gym in our area, outside of Lifetime Fitness. Yet its less than 25% of the cost, which makes it a no brainer.
