US 290 from Oak Hill to Dripping Springs Environmental Study

| In-person details | Saturday, June 1, 2024 In-person workshop attendees will be able to review project materials, ask questions of TxDOT staff, provide comments on study area constraints maps, respond to survey questions, and leave written comments. |
| Purpose | To evaluate long-term safety and mobility solutions along US 290 from RM 1826 in southwest Austin to Rob Shelton Boulevard in Dripping Springs. |
| Description | Based on public feedback, TxDOT continues to evaluate design options and has extended the study timeline to allow for more community dialogue. Our goal is to develop a project that both meets the desired mobility and safety outcomes and reflects community values. TxDOT will share information about the environmental study and what will be analyzed, community feedback that has been received, and the need for mobility and safety improvements to US 290 in the study area. TxDOT would like to receive community input regarding the mobility and safety issues they experience, as well as their ideas for improving the corridor. |
