Description:
The proposed project would reconstruct and widen approximately 7.4 miles of SH 276 to a four-lane divided urban highway with one 12-foot-wide travel lane and one 14-foot-wide outside shared-use lane in each direction, a variable width median that would accommodate an additional future lane in each direction, and left-turn lanes at various driveways and side-streets along the corridor and at intersections, including FM 551 and FM 548. Additional improvements would include five-foot sidewalks along both sides of the roadway. The proposed project would require approximately 34.6 acres of additional right of way (ROW) to expand the roadway. No residential or non-residential structures would be displaced.
