City wants to talk substandard streets

The city’s Transportation Department is looking for input on their current plans to improve some of Austin’s substandard streets. To gather feedback, the city will be holding a series of open house sessions that will help determine how the $11 million earmarked for substandard roads in the 2016 Mobility Bond is spent. Four open houses will take place this month, starting today, targeting projects on Cooper Lane, Latta Drive and Brush Country Road, Davis Lane and FM 1626. Open houses for Circle S Road, Johnny Morris Road and Ross Road are planned for October. Details about the meetings are available online here.
