Lewisville residents who love getting outside have fresh reason to celebrate: the city is expanding its Denton County Transportation Authority (DCTA) trail, pushing the route closer to neighboring Carrollton and Coppell, according to Star Local Media.

The trail extension represents a meaningful step forward for the region’s connected outdoor infrastructure, giving cyclists, joggers, and walkers more room to roam — and eventually linking communities across the area in a continuous, car-free corridor. Trail networks like this one are widely valued for promoting active lifestyles, reducing traffic, and strengthening the sense of connection between neighboring cities.

Also making headlines this week, the Atlantic Housing Foundation closed a $52.7 million deal in Lewisville, according to Star Local Media. Atlantic Housing Foundation is a nonprofit organization focused on affordable housing, and a transaction of this scale signals continued investment in the community’s residential future — a welcome sign for families and individuals seeking quality housing options in the area.

Together, these developments reflect a Lewisville that is growing thoughtfully — expanding the trails that bring neighbors together outdoors while also working to ensure that more residents have a place to call home. Keep an eye on both projects as details continue to emerge in the weeks ahead.
