Notice affording an opportunity for a public hearing
| Public comment deadline | All hearing requests and comments must be received on or before Friday, May 29, 2026. |
| Purpose | TxDOT is proposing to widen US 83 from the Concho County Line to US 190 North of Menard in Menard County, Texas. This notice advises the public that TxDOT is affording an opportunity for a public hearing on the proposed project. |
| Description | The proposed project would extend for approximately 11.28 miles along US 83. The existing typical section consists of a rural two-lane undivided highway with alternating passing lanes within a 120-foot-wide right of way. The proposed project would widen US 83 within an approximate 470-foot-wide right of way. The proposed project would be constructed in two phases: Phase I (interim design) would primarily widen US 83 to a four‑lane divided highway; Phase II (ultimate design) would widen US 83 by constructing frontage roads on either side of the interim design mainlanes. In addition, construction would occur on approximately 0.15 mile of US 190 to improve the US 83/US 190 intersection, and approximately 0.54 mile of Farm-to-Market (FM) 3463 to realign the US 83/FM 3463 intersection. Construction of Phase II would be dependent on funding and interstate planning. Although additional right of way would be required, no residential or non-residential structures are anticipated to be displaced at this time. Information concerning services and benefits available to affected property owners and information about the tentative schedule for right-of-way acquisition and construction can be obtained from the TxDOT district office by calling 325-944-1501. Environmental documentation, maps and drawings showing the project location and design, tentative construction schedules, and other information regarding the proposed project are on file and available for inspection Monday through Friday between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. by appointment at San Angelo District Office, 4502 Knickerbocker Road, San Angelo, Texas 76904, 325-944-1501. |
