Learning to drive in Aledo

Aledo is an incorporated city in eastern Parker County with one of the county's strongest suburban-growth driving environments. Its road network is shaped by FM 1187, FM 5, I-20 access, school traffic, subdivision entrances, construction, pedestrians, and Fort Worth commuter traffic.

The City of Aledo describes itself as a rapidly growing community west of Fort Worth, and current city planning continues to focus heavily on FM 1187 and growth-related transportation needs.
