Purpose The City of Georgetown, in coordination with TxDOT, is proposing to improve RM 2243 (Leander Road) from Southwest Bypass to Norwood Drive in Williamson County, Texas. The virtual public meeting will consist of a pre-recorded video presentation and will include both audio and visual components. The presentation will be available online at 9 a.m. on Thursday, May 25, 2023.

Description

The purpose of the proposed project is to enhance safety and mobility for vehicles, pedestrians, and cyclists and provide safe turning movements to and from local schools and subdivisions. Proposed improvements include widening RM 2243 (Leander Road) from Southwest Bypass to Norwood Drive to two lanes in each direction, constructing raised medians with turn lanes to reduce turning conflicts, and providing continuous pedestrian and bicyclist paths along RM 2243 from Southwest Bypass to the I-35 Frontage Road. The project would also install a signal at RM 2243 and River Ridge Drive and reconstruct the intersection of RM 2243 and Southwest Bypass to be compatible with nearby project plans.
