UPCOMING RESTORATION EFFORTS – (See below description for up to date progress of the project.)
We wish to clarify to our community that this project, is led by the Trinity River Authority (TRA), not Grapevine Parks & Recreation. Despite this, we are collaborating closely with the TRA to ensure that the project proceeds smoothly.
The construction project by the TRA necessitates some temporary alterations, but rest assured, restoration efforts are planned to begin this spring through summer 2024. These efforts will focus on:
– Planting new trees and seeding areas to rejuvenate the green spaces affected by the construction. – Reconstructing trails to enhance drainage and improve walking paths for our community’s enjoyment.
We understand the impact of these changes and are committed to working diligently with the TRA to restore and improve our parks and trails as quickly as possible.
Thank you for your understanding and patience as we navigate these changes together. Here is more information to understand this project:
Thalle Construction Company, Inc. has been contracted by the Trinity River Authority of Texas to construct the Bear Creek Interceptor Segment 09BC-1, Phase 2 Project for the Central Regional Wastewater System. Construction is in progress near your neighborhood.
WHY: This project will replace the existing pipeline infrastructure that is currently located in the same corridor to improve overall system service.
WHERE: The map above is the approximate location of the Bear Creek Interceptor Segment 09BC-1, Phase 2 construction project. Construction access will occur along the project limits, as well as from Old Mill Run to access the western limits of the construction.
WHEN THE WORK WILL TAKE PLACE: Construction will occur in phases over the next two years. The majority of the work will occur during normal work hours (7AM – 7PM, Monday through Friday). The project is expected to be completed by the summer of 2024. Weather and unforeseen events may cause delays.
WHAT YOU MAY SEE: There will be construction activity related to installing pipe, and there will be heavy equipment and industrial lighting used on the project. Expect temporary trail closures to ensure safety.
WHAT YOU MAY HEAR: The sound of pumps, generators and heavy equipment may be heard intermittently.
WHAT YOU WILL SMELL: There may be occasional odors associated with the project as we make connections to an existing pipeline and divert wastewater to a new pipeline.
SAFETY NOTE: Be aware of fenced-off construction areas and watch for signage. Stay away from construction, storage sites and equipment. If you see something unusual or unsafe, please let us know immediately.

PROGRESS UPDATES AS OF 12/3/2024:
The project has been substantially completed with a few punch list items remaining including establishing a cover of vegetation that will control erosion. Once the vegetation is established the black sediment control fencing will be removed throughout the site. The trail is being restored through Wall Farrar and the Wall Farrar nature trail will open to the public this week. Trees were also planted along this section of the trail during the celebration of Arbor Day on November 2. Additional tree plantings will take place along the Parr Trail in late winter. The Rock Art Trail remains open but the additional entrance into the Rock Art Trail remains closed until unrelated TRA work along the creek bank is completed. Also effected by the work along the creek bank are two sections of Parr Trail that have not been repaired to accommodate large equipment for this City project. Once the work along the creek bank is complete these trails sections will also be restored.
Construction will start on Monday, March 18that the end Heritage on the north side, also known as Manhole Hill. There will be testing for 24 hours to ensure a good shut out- this includes four (4) pumps and two (2) generators along with lights for the construction crews. This construction is part of the TRA Sewer Line Rehab along Big Bear Creek as they transition from the old line to the new line. This is a large line with significant flows. We expect this effort could take up to 10 days. The equipment will run 24 hours a day. It will be noisy but is unavoidable. If you have a noise complaint, please call Wanda at 817-410-3135.
The Trinity River Authority is working throughout the project site from SH 360 to Old Mills Run. The trail, restroom, playground and north parking lot in Bear Creek Park is open. The ballfields, batting cages, and south parking lot remain closed as TRA construction and City restoration continue in and around these facilities. The Rock Art Trail is also closed to accommodate repairs to the aerial crossing across Bear Creek. The trail is scheduled to open at the end of the month.
Wright construction will begin work to repair the City’s wasterwater pipe that crosses Bear Creek in two locations: 1) adjacent to the south field at Bear Creek Park and 2) next to the Rock Art Trail. Repairs will begin at the Park on Monday, May 15th for a duration of two weeks, weather dependent, then move over to the Rock Art Trail during the first week in June. This should also take about two weeks to complete. The Bear Creek Park is closed and will remain closed during these repairs. We will need to close the Rock Art Trail when work begins in that area. We’ve asked for a three day notice so we will have time to let the public know.
