Delays on The Texas Department of Transportation ’s RM 620 widening project continue, with construction set to begin as early as 2030, according to department representatives.
The overview
The project is estimated to cost $250 million, fully funded by TxDOT, and will see roadways between Hwy. 71 and Hudson Bend Road widened to six lanes with new medians. Shared-use paths will also be constructed for bikers and pedestrians along the corridor.
The first open house meeting for RM 620’s widening, in which TxDOT introduced Lakeway residents to the project, was held in 2018, at which point construction was expected to start in 2022, according to previous reporting by Community Impact.
That start date has now been delayed by at least eight years, to 2030 or later, a TxDOT representative
