REMINDER - Austin Open-House Meeting - Thursday, May 13th

...Let TXDOT know how important cyclists are in long range plans...

Fellow Texan:

This is a follow-up reminder to the notice sent earlier in April regarding Thursday's open-house meeting in Austin.

As previously noted, we at the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) are updating our Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan, and are asking for your help in developing this blueprint for how Texas addresses its future transportation needs.

This plan will provide a framework for developing and implementing a multi-modal transportation system through 2035, including highways, rail, water ports, airports, pedestrian and bicycle facilities, pipelines and Intelligent Transportation Systems. The Statewide Long-Range Transportation Plan is the foundation for many planning efforts underway at TxDOT.

Because transportation is important to all Texans, we are holding two rounds of open-house meetings to encourage comments and questions about the plan. Following the public meetings, the feedback we receive will be analyzed for development of the plan. We anticipate submitting a plan for final public comment and adoption by the Texas Transportation Commission later this fall.

Again, we hope you will be able to participate in this important planning process. Your input is vital for TxDOT to fulfill its mission of providing safe, effective and efficient movement of people and goods throughout Texas.

The attached newsletter provides times, locations and other details regarding all the scheduled meetings.

The Thursday, May 13th meeting in Austin is scheduled from 4:00 to 7:00 p.m. at the TxDOT Austin District Headquarters - Building 7 which is located at 7901 North IH 35.
