Travis County is seeking input on dozens of road projects, including several in the Lake Travis-Westlake area. The finalization of projects that could possibly get county funding is dubbed the Travis County Transportation Blueprint, and officials are currently spearheading a citizen feedback campaign in order to zero in the most needed projects. Information from Travis County’s website states the blueprint aims to meet the community’s transportation needs for the next 30 years, and decisions regarding funding allocation are a critical part of the process. “Too many projects are chasing too few dollars,” the county’s website states. “Before we finalize the Blueprint, we want to hear from you: Which of these projects are most important to you? Are there some you don’t like? Are there some that are not a high priority for you?” In western Travis County, major road projects include Bee Creek Road, Lohman Ford Road and Hamilton Pool Road. “Some of them will be pipelined quicker than others,” said Gerald Daugherty, the Travis County commissioner for Precinct 3. “Hamilton Pool Road is probably my next major road to take on because of the safety factor. It’s where I’m going to put a lot of the energy.” Daugherty said Hamilton Pool Road needs a center turn lane and 6-foot shoulders at least from Hwy. 71 to RM 12, and he has been working with the Texas Department of Transportation on a funding strategy for the $12.2 million project for several months. The original project for Hamilton Pool Road had a construction cost estimate of $5.2 million, which would have come from TxDOT. TxDOT Public Information Officer Bradley Wheelis said in April the addition of the left turn lane raised the estimate to $12.2 million.
