Austin transportation finally on the move
Wednesday, February 11, 2015 by Elizabeth Pagano
It’s unclear whether this is a move to make the department more or less empathetic to traffic problems, but the Austin Transportation Department is moving from its current location at One Texas Center (just across the South First Street Bridge from City Hall) to 3701 Lake Austin Blvd. (which is in the LCRA building). The Office of the Director, Right of Way Management, Administration and Finance, Strategic Planning, Active Transportation, and Traffic Engineering will be moving to the new location. The Special Events division will remain at One Texas Center, and all other divisions and crews will remain in their current locations. As a result, walk-in permitting and traffic control plan review will be closed on Thursday, Feb. 26 and Friday, Feb. 27.
