For Christmas Lights, There’s No Place Like Interlochen
The Lights of Interlochen are glowing again. If you haven’t had a chance to see this display, I highly recommend it. Over 200 homeowners in the Interlochen neighborhood of northwest Arlington decorate their homes in displays that rival Clark Griswold. The Lights of Interlochen is one of the largest holiday light displays in north Texas. It runs daily until 11:30 pm from Saturday, December 15 through Christmas Day.
Motorists are being asked to enter the neighborhood from Randol Mill Road at Westwood Drive. The Arlington Police Department will be on hand with traffic control posts to help things moving smoothly. All other streets to the Interlochen neighborhood will be closed. Left turns are prohibited from northbound Bowen at Westwood and at Westwood and Crowley. No U-turns are allowed at Westwood and Findlay.
Traffic is very congested during peak times. For the most pleasant viewing experience, try to visit during the week. Here are a few more tips to help make your trip through Interlochen a little more enjoyable:
- Be Patient! Traffic is heavy and moves slowly.
- Adults and children must be properly secured by safety belts and child safety seats.
- Traffic must keep right at all times, leaving the left lane open for emergency vehicles and Interlochen homeowners.
- Pedestrian traffic is permitted. Roller skating in the street is prohibited by the Arlington Municipal Code.
Directions:
From I-30, take the Fielder Road exit and go south to Randol Mill Road. Turn right on Randol Mill Road and follow it to Westwood Drive; or you can take the Eastchase Parkway exit from I-30, turn east on Meadowbrook Boulevard to Randol Mill Road, then right on Randol Mill Road to Westwood Drive.
