| Purpose | TxDOT will host its second public meeting to provide an update on the FM 93 from Wheat Road to SH 317 project. |
| Description | The proposed project would reconstruct the existing FM 93 corridor from Wheat Road to SH 317 in Bell County, Texas. The proposed improvements along FM 93 for the section from Wheat Road to Mitchell Street include widening FM 93 from two undivided lanes to four divided lanes with a raised median. Additionally, FM 93 from Mitchell Street to SH 317 proposed improvements include widening FM 93 from two lanes to three lanes, one lane in each direction with a two-way left-turn lane in the middle. A shared-use path would be added along one side of the roadway and a sidewalk along the other side of the roadway throughout the entire corridor. Three roundabout alternatives are also proposed for the intersections of FM 93 / Wheat Road, FM 93 / SL 121 and FM 93 / SH 317. TxDOT anticipates making a de minimis determination for this use under Section 4(f) of the Department of Transportation Act of 1966. Public comment on the effects of the proposed project on the activities, features, or attributes of Harris Park and the Section 6(f) properties of Yettie Polk Park and the Nolan Creek Park Hike and Bike Trail may be submitted as described below. The proposed project would involve construction in wetlands. The proposed project would involve an action in a floodplain. |
