The Traffic Impact Map can be found at https://nbutexas.com. Those utilizing it can access details about closures and the capital improvement projects under construction, the project's benefits, budget amounts and when the project is anticipated to be completed.
NBU plans to invest more than $871 million into 153 projects over the next five years. According to the utility, the capital improvement projects are designed to provide the New Braunfels community with safe and resilient electric, water and wastewater services.
“Committed to the NBU vision of being a trusted community partner dedicated to excellence in service, our staff continuously works to maintain, repair, and enhance infrastructure to ensure future generations enjoy reliable and resilient services,” said Melissa C. Krause, NBU’s chief strategic communications and security officer. “These necessary improvements have the potential to create numerous road impacts. The new online tool is designed to benefit our community and beyond, to see the road impacts and understand the ‘why’ behind the closures.”
NBU said it is committed to providing timely and important information to the community, and the new Traffic Impact Map is another example of delivering on this commitment.
