The I-14/US 190 expansion through Killeen, the Clear Creek Road extension, and the West Killeen residential development drive civilian construction. The Killeen Medical Center and the Texas A&M Central Texas campus add institutional construction. The fort's transition to Fort Cavazos and the III Armored Corps reactivation drive new federal construction projects.
