On Sept. 28, New Braunfels City Council allocated $82,950 to Cobb, Fendley & Associates for right-of-way, or ROW, acquisition for the South Kowald Lane Improvements Project.
To complete this project, the city must acquire ROW, drainage easements, sight-distance easements and temporary construction easements from 12 parcels of land, according to agenda documents.
About the project
The city's voter-approved 2023 bond will fund the ROW acquisition, according to agenda documents.
The roadway project includes the addition of a center turn lane between I-35 and FM 1101. Sidewalks will also be added on both sides of the street. Traffic signals will be upgraded and there will be drainage infrastructure improvements, according to agenda documents.
