County to host groundbreaking for West Arena at Expo Center

Williamson County will host a groundbreaking event for the Williamson County Expo Center West Arena on Monday, Dec. 2 at 10:30 a.m. at 5350 Bill Pickett Trail in Taylor, according to a news release.

The facility, funded through the 2023 WilCo Parks Bond, will “feature a new 175-foot by 450-foot covered arena with showers and restrooms, two 28-foot by 28-foot covered picnic pavilions and an engineered gravel parking area expansion,” according to the release.

The West Arena will allow existing events to grow in both size and scope, with the restrooms and showers supporting the RV park, the pavilions serving groups for social activities and the parking area expansion supporting Expo Center events, especially during wet conditions.

The architect and engineer for the project will be Parkhill, and the construction contractor will be Bartlett Cocke General Contractors.

The project is expected to cost $10.7 million and will take approximately 12 months to complete, according to the release.

Williamson County Precinct 4 Commissioner Russ Boles, Williamson County Parks Department Director Russell Fishbeck and Williamson County Expo Center General Manager Jason Brown are all slated to attend the groundbreaking ceremony.
