Big 6
TxDOT, in partnership with the Bryan-College Station Metropolitan Planning Organization, is proposing improvements to SH 6 from US 190/SH 21 to SH 40.
Proposed improvements include: expanding the main lanes from four to six lanes (three in each direction); adding and improving auxiliary lane configurations; adding collector-distributor lanes at selected locations for safer and more efficient merging movements; improving interchanges for more efficient traffic flow; and providing shared-use paths for bicycles and pedestrians.
