More details
CTRMA completed a 5-mile segment of the agency's ongoing 183A Toll extension project. This final section finished out Phase 3 of the $259 million expansion project. The extension originally opened April 9, but commuters still faced some delays due to some final construction and clean-up along the onramps.
Final construction on the shared-use path and landscaping along the work route is expected to be completed in July, according to previous Community Impact reporting. According to CTRMA’s website, the remaining construction and clean-up may result in brief delays at the discretion of the construction crew.
The extension now allows for 16 miles of uninterrupted travel between northwest Austin and Liberty Hill, according to a CTRMA news release. The new segment extends from Hero Way West and passes under SH 29. This allows commuters to bypass traffic signals at Hero Way, San Gabriel Parkway, Bryson Ridge Trail and Whitewing Drive.
What else?
CTRMA has reported an average of 35,000 users per day since the Phase 3 extension opened in April, according to previous reporting.
