Council approves temporary closure of US‑180 for Parker County Peach Festival
Summary
The council approved a resolution supporting a temporary closure of US Highway 180 and adjacent local streets for the Parker County Peach Festival on July 10; the closure will accompany the permit application to TxDOT.
The Weatherford City Council on April 27 approved a resolution to request a temporary closure of portions of US Highway 180 and several side streets for the Parker County Peach Festival, scheduled for Saturday, July 10.
Manny Palacios, Director of Transportation and Public Works, presented the event footprint and explained the city must submit a traffic‑control/closure permit to TxDOT with an accompanying resolution from the city. "We will be having a peach festival this year," Palacios said, noting the festival footprint and that the Chamber of Commerce is the sponsor.
The council voted 5–0 to adopt the resolution in support of the permit application. Staff will continue to coordinate traffic management and permitting with TxDOT and festival organizers.
