| Purpose | TxDOT is proposing the installation of a new location roadway (Hamilton Truck / Relief Route) from US 281 from FM 3302 to SH 22 around the City of Hamilton in Hamilton County, Texas. |
| Description | The project would be approximately 12 miles in length. The proposed Hamilton Truck / Relief Route would be a four-lane divided roadway with non-continuous two-lane frontage roads and access ramps to major cross-streets. The proposed Hamilton Truck / Relief Route would require additional right of way to accommodate the construction of the project. Environmental studies are ongoing to determine the environmental impacts associated with constructing the Truck / Relief Route. |
| Accessibility | The in-person and virtual public meeting will be conducted in English. If you need an interpreter or document translator because English is not your primary language or you have difficulty communicating effectively in English, one will be provided to you. If you have a disability and need assistance, special arrangements can be made to accommodate most needs. If you need interpretation or translation services or you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to attend and participate in the virtual public meeting or in-person option, please contact the TxDOT Public Information Office at 254-867-2836 no later than 4 p.m. CST, Friday, Sept. 20, 2024. Please be aware that advance notice is required as some services and accommodations may require time for TxDOT to arrange. |
