			<description><![CDATA[<p>TxDot is planning a new bypass road between 620 and 2222. <a href="http://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/get-involved/about/hearings-meetings/austin/102617.html" rel="ugc">http://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/get-i … 02617.html</a> </p><p>The schematics include a sidewalk and bike lanes, though the shoulders/lanes are only 5 ft wide (maybe 6 with the gutter).</p><p>The lanes appear to extend to intersections, swapping places with the turn lane (like what was done on Parmer or 290 west of Oak Hill).&#160; Some of these narrow shoulders seem pretty dangerous to me but I guess it&#039;s nice TxDOT is at least thinking about bikes and peds for new projects, and leaving asphalt space for all road users.</p><p>One downside is parts of 620/2222 near the bypass will see their shoulders will shrink from 12&#039; to 5-6&#039;.</p>]]></description>
