Draft MAP ready for review

Wondering what the city plans to do with the 2016 mobility bond funds in 2021? The draft 2021 Mobility Annual Plan and online interactive map are now available for review and comment. Every year, the city releases a MAP to outline projects that will be funded through the bond. This year’s MAP includes projects involving Intersection Safety/Vision Zero improvements, Safe Routes to School, sidewalks, bikeways, urban trails and more. The planned projects align with City Council’s Austin Strategic Direction 2023 Mobility Strategic Outcome of getting Austinites where we want go, when we want to get there, safely and cost-effectively. “We’re now four years into the 2016 Mobility Bond program and we have hundreds of projects on the ground around Austin, providing our community better and safer ways to get around our city,” said Assistant City Manager Gina Fiandaca in a press release. “The 2021 Mobility Annual Plan outlines a big year of planned transportation infrastructure work citywide.” The feedback form is now open on the Mobility Annual Plan website, and comments will be accepted through Feb. 7, 2021. The final 2021 MAP will be published in early March 2021.
