TxDOT to hear comments on 290 widening project

The Texas Department of Transportation will host a virtual meeting to share proposed plans to widen and enhance the safety and mobility on US 290 from Oak Hill to Dripping Springs.

The Texas Department of Transportation will host a virtual meeting to share proposed plans to widen and enhance the safety and mobility on US 290 from Oak Hill to Dripping Springs.

The proposed project would reconstruct approximately 13 miles of U.S. Highway 290 from RM 1826 in southwest Austin to just west of RM 12 in Dripping Springs. The existing fourlane, undivided roadway would be widened to a six-lane divided highway with frontage roads and shareduse paths. The design would eliminate traffic signals along the mainlanes throughout the project corridor. The proposed design would be a controlled access highway, meaning drivers can access the mainlanes via key entrance and exit ramp locations along the frontage roads. The project will connect to Oak Hill Parkway, currently under construction.

The virtual public hearing will consist of a pre-recorded presentation and will include audio and visual components.

Comments can be submitted online or by mail. Comments must be received by Feb. 6,to be included in the official record of the virtual public meeting.
