Hays County, San Marcos and Texas Department of Transportation leadership held a groundbreaking ceremony for the FM 110 North project March 1.
“Today, we celebrate a project that will transform transportation in Hays County,” TxDOT Austin District Engineer Tucker Ferguson said in a press release. “This project will complete an east side loop in San Marcos, providing an alternative to I-35.”
The $36.5 million project was championed by Hays County Commissioner Debbie Ingalsbe, and the county paid for the project planning and right-of-way acquisition,TxDOT Public Information Officer Bradley Wheelis told Community Impact Newspaper in an email.
The FM 110 North project is the last of three projects meant to complete a loop on the east side of San Marcos. The 6.5-mile road will connect to the southern and middle sections of road and create a new section of roadway from SH 80 to I-35.
