SH 45 SW breaks ground, new 3.6 mile shared use path by end of 2019

SH 45SW will be the new 3.6-mile toll road, with two lanes in each direction; connecting MoPac eastward to the improved FM 1626 in Hays County.

SH 45SW will include a total of $3 million in bicycle and pedestrian improvements. Refinements to these improvements were developed using feedback from stakeholder groups including the Hill Country Conservancy (Violet Crown Trail), the city of Austin Bike Department, Bike Austin and the Southeast Austin Trails and Greenbelt.

(hopefully no toll on the path :))
