Railroad Park Opening!

Railroad Park opening date set for Nov. 2

Railroad Park will open to the public on Monday, Nov. 2, and a park showcase event on April 17. The park is located on the east side of Railroad Street between FM 3040 (Hebron Parkway) and Business 121, with a main entrance at the intersection of Railroad Street and Bennett Lane. All park facilities will open at once, although a few soccer games are scheduled for the two preceding weekends in order to test the turf.

Please note: Due to weather-related delays, the turf on the dog park has not yet been established, which will delay the opening of the dog park until about Dec. 1. Other areas of the park will open to the public on Nov. 2 as announced. [updated 10/20/2009]

When Railroad Park opens, it will feature 250 acres of top-quality recreational facilities including eight soccer fields, four football fields, four baseball fields, three concession stands with restrooms, a dog park with separate areas for large and small dogs, one of the largest public skateparks in North Texas, walking paths, and three manmade lakes. The park is the largest capital project in the history of the city and is being paid for through a quarter-cent 4B sales tax approved by Lewisville voters in 2002.
