The parkway is a 27.6-mile (44.4 km) two- to six-lane freeway along the route of an extension of State Highway 121. Environmental clearance for the project was received in June 2005. Initial construction began in April 2010. The Chisholm Trail Parkway opened to traffic on May 11, 2014. The cost of the parkway was approximately $1.4 billion.
The segment of the parkway from FM 1187 to I-30 in Tarrant County was originally named Southwest Parkway. Legislation renaming that segment was passed in May 2011.
