Due to increasing use and rising population in the area, the city of Austin's Public Works Department has been working to replace the Redbud Trail bridge over Lady Bird Lake. The project, which has been underway since 2016, is in the preliminary phase after receiving additional funding last year through Proposition G from the $925 million bond approved by voters in 2018. Residents can attend the second public open house June 27 at the West Austin Youth Association, located at 1314 Exposition Blvd., Austin, from 6 to 7:30 p.m. For more information on the project and the open house, click here.
