Starting this week, Haslet residents may notice an increase in vehicular traffic in the area due to BNSF’s Network Operating Center staff being relocated to a facility at 14900 John Day Road while their current facility is being renovated. BNSF anticipates there will be a noticeable increase in vehicular traffic moving to and from the new facility, particularly between the timeframes of 5:30 a.m. to 6:45 a.m.; 2 p.m. to 2:45 p.m., and 4:45 pm to 5:30 p.m.

In an effort to minimize commuter traffic impacts, BNSF has contacted Haslet city leaders, the Northwest ISD, and emergency responders about the increase in vehicle traffic through the area. Additionally, BNSF employees have been directed to use travel options - from the north, John Day Rd. from Hwy 114 and from the south, Main St. (or Keller Haslet Rd.) from Hwy 156. We are also encouraging carpooling with fellow employees to the extent practical.

BNSF anticipates the renovation of the NOC will be completed prior to October 1, 2017.
