As a result from the recent rains produced by Tropical Depression Bill, Grapevine Lake levels are continually increasing. Because of the increased lake level, the Cities of Grapevine and Flower Mound along with Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) and Northgate Constructors are monitoring impact of the flooding to F.M. 2499.

At this time, the southbound lanes of F.M. 2499 are now closed at Gerault Road. The closure may soon include the northbound lanes of F.M. 2499 from Grapevine Mills Parkway. This closure will directly affect access to Camden Riverwalk Apartments and the Marquis at Silver Oaks Apartments. Contingencies are being made to use alternate roads to access the apartment complexes. Management from both of those apartment complexes have been updated regarding these measures. The following important information is our most current:
