After voters approved a bond package in 2020, the District was able to start constructing a dam to help address the worst flood damage center in Williamson County. Dam 101 is a new Dam that will be nearly a mile long and four stories tall.The dam will reduce flood risks for over 1,000 residents.The new dam reduces flood risks for approximately 5 miles of Lake Creek as it winds from the dam through the Greater Round Rock West neighborhood, past the IH 35 frontage roads and continues all the way down to just after Lake Creek Park. The project also improves emergency access and response times to the area by reducing flood risk at multiple road crossings. Estimated substantial completion is late 2025.
