Boerne is adding its first supermarket not owned by H-E-B: Sprouts Farmers Market anchors Boerne Town Center Phase 2 off I-10, with Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers, KFC, Club Pilates, and Chicken Salad Chick also planned. Permits are approved and construction is underway, but no opening date has been announced. Buc-ee's at I-10 and U.S. Business 87 completed sitework in March 2025 and is expected to open in 2027 after a scaled-back development agreement. TxDOT has finished the I-10 West projects between Loop 1604 and SH 46, all eight flyover ramps at the I-10 and Loop 1604 interchange are open, and the FM 3351 expansion between I-10 and SH 46 is in the works. Local road projects include the Ammann Road project in Fair Oaks Ranch and Adler Road reconstruction in Boerne, both funded through 2024 voter-approved bonds.
Boerne and the I-10 corridor are in the middle of their largest retail and road-building phase in years. The confirmed projects include a Sprouts Farmers Market anchoring the second phase of Boerne Town Center, a Buc-ee's travel center at I-10 and U.S. Business 87, several new restaurants and fitness tenants, and a series of TxDOT road projects that are already changing the commute. This article separates what is confirmed, what is under construction, and what still has no announced date, so the timeline you read elsewhere matches what is actually happening.
Boerne's grocery market has long been dominated by a single full-line option, H-E-B. That is changing with Boerne Town Center Phase 2, a roughly $12 million second phase off I-10 at 115 Norris Lane that is anchored by Sprouts Farmers Market, which would be the first supermarket in Boerne not owned by H-E-B. The same phase adds Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers, KFC, Club Pilates, and Chicken Salad Chick.
The City of Boerne approved the project's permits and construction is underway, with no opening date announced as of this writing. Earlier reporting pointed to first restaurant openings in summer 2026, with the full build-out continuing through 2027. For households comparing Boerne with northwest San Antonio, the practical effect is more grocery, dining, and fitness options inside the city limits instead of a drive toward Loop 1604.
The anchor tenant is Sprouts Farmers Market, roughly 23,300 square feet per a Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation filing. Around it, the phase adds Freddy's Frozen Custard and Steakburgers, KFC, Club Pilates, and Chicken Salad Chick, with earlier reporting pointing to first restaurant openings in summer 2026 and continued build-out through 2027.
A separate retail and restaurant plaza, filed as Scenic Loop Retail, is planned near the Town Center at roughly $3.5 million and about 30,600 square feet, with construction slated for October 2026. Opening dates for both projects can shift with permits, weather, and tenant schedules, so verify the current status before planning around a specific store.
The Buc-ee's travel center at I-10 and U.S. Business 87 near Boerne is under development after more than a decade of delays tied to zoning, public input, and I-10 roadwork. Sitework began in March 2025, and a scaled-back development agreement was finalized in late 2025.
Current reporting places the opening in 2027, later than earlier estimates that pointed to summer 2026. The City of Boerne maintains a briefing page documenting the project's history and current status, which is the reliable place to check for changes.
The building is not limited to the Town Center. Pan&Coffee, an international bakery and coffeehouse, began its Boerne build in August 2025. Inside 9 Golf and Social Club opened in December 2025 at 27650 I-10 West in the Napa Oaks Plaza on the Fair Oaks Ranch stretch, and Club Car Wash is on the same stretch. An O'Reilly Auto Parts is in the Boerne area.
On the residential side, the Post Oak project in Fair Oaks Ranch is underway under an updated development agreement that scaled the plan from 645 homes to 278 custom lots, with Phase 1 at roughly 60 lots. Esperanza continues to add housing with a retail town center planned, and Alamo Colleges District is planning a Northwest Education and Training Center in the Boerne area, targeted to open in 2027.
TxDOT has wrapped up the long series of I-10 West projects between Loop 1604 and SH 46, which added new overpasses, widened structures, converted frontage roads to one-way, and expanded mainlanes. All eight flyover ramps at the I-10 and Loop 1604 interchange, the gateway near Leon Springs, have opened.
Work continues around it. TxDOT is working on the FM 3351 expansion between I-10 and SH 46 in Fair Oaks Ranch, and a previously proposed I-10 widening from SH 46 to FM 3351, Ralph Fair Road, to eight lanes with HOV lanes remains on the longer-term list.
Local road projects are funded through 2024 voter-approved bonds. The Ammann Road project is Fair Oaks Ranch's largest bond project, about $6 million from FM 3351 to the Kendall County line, with construction expected to begin late 2026. In Boerne, Adler Road reconstruction is scheduled for 2026, expanding the roadway, along with low-water crossing improvements at No Name Creek and Currey Creek. Timelines shift with weather, bids, and funding, so treat completion dates as estimates.
For buyers, the corridor is becoming more self-contained: more grocery and dining options, a completed interchange, and continued road work all change what daily life looks like from a home in Boerne, Fair Oaks Ranch, or Leon Springs. For sellers, new amenities support demand, but they do not replace pricing strategy, and current sales data still varies widely by lot size and proximity to town.
The practical habit is to verify before planning: check the City of Boerne and TxDOT for current project status, confirm a builder's timeline in writing, and test the commute at the time of day you would actually drive it. Development changes the area over the years you own a home, so the question is not just what exists today, but what is confirmed to be coming.

She tracks local development and road projects because they change commute times, resale competition, and the way a community feels over the years you own the home.
If you are comparing a home in Boerne with one closer to Loop 1604, ask her for the current status of the projects that matter to you and for recent sales data for the specific neighborhood. She will give you a direct answer based on what the data and the local sources show, not a sales pitch.
No opening date has been announced. Construction on Boerne Town Center Phase 2 is underway with permits approved, and earlier reporting pointed to first restaurant openings in summer 2026 with build-out through 2027. Opening dates shift, so check the City of Boerne or the project's announcements for the current timeline.
The store at I-10 and U.S. Business 87 is expected to open in 2027. Sitework began in March 2025, and a scaled-back development agreement was finalized in late 2025. Earlier estimates pointed to summer 2026, but current reporting places the opening in 2027.
Yes. Sprouts Farmers Market is planned as the anchor of Boerne Town Center Phase 2 and would be the first supermarket in Boerne not owned by H-E-B. H-E-B remains the city's existing full-line grocery option.
Yes. TxDOT completed the I-10 West projects between Loop 1604 and SH 46, and all eight flyover ramps at the I-10 and Loop 1604 interchange have opened.
The completed interchange work and the FM 3351 expansion between I-10 and SH 46 are designed to improve flow, but weekday peaks on I-10 and at the Loop 1604 interchange remain congested. Test the route at the time of day you would actually drive it.
