Future Parmer Lane Changes Coming – Let’s Start Discussing!

Posted on September 9, 2025 by Meg Davis

Milwood Neighborhood Assoc’s VP’s Tanner is working for us and with surrounding neighborhoods to increase awareness and gather feedback regarding the potential changes coming in the future through TxDot regarding Parmer Lane.

These changes while just on the horizon will be one of the biggest things to affect our neighborhood in the future so get involved!

Location: Milwood Branch
Date: Wednesday, October 22, 2025 – 6 PM to 7:30 PM

Parmer Lane is undergoing planning for redevelopment that may include very drastic changes. While there is no definitive plan yet, neighborhoods along Parmer are joining together to have a voice in any potential changes.

To start, the newly formed Parmer Lane Alliance of Neighborhoods (PLAN) is collecting feedback from neighbors to learn what people do or don’t want. If you are interested in learning more or offering feedback, we will have a meeting to discuss the potential changes.

All are welcome! If you would like to RSVP click HERE.

Background information regarding the corridor study is available here
