1. New RR 620 lane


A new auxiliary southbound lane on RR 620—from just north of Lohmans Crossing to Spillman Loop in Lakeway—is being added. The project also includes adding pavement at several RR 620 intersections, including Falcon Head Boulevard and Ladera Boulevard, to allow a three-lane approach on the west side of the intersections. This configuration will match the east side of these intersections.
Timeline: Aug. 8-late fall/early winter
Cost: $1.42 million
Funding sources: Texas Department of Transportation



2. Bicycle/pedestrian bridge on MoPac over Barton Creek Greenbelt


Construction is still in progress on a bicycle and pedestrian bridge slated to be completed this summer. Partnering with the city of Austin, TxDOT is constructing the bridge, which has a shared-use path along northbound MoPac lanes over the Barton Creek Greenbelt from one frontage road turnaround to the other near MoPac’s intersections with Southwest Parkway and Loop 360. Remaining work includes bridge abutment, railing and lighting work for the bridge, and sidewalk tie-ins.


Timeline: February 2014-fall 2016
Cost: $7.7 million
Funding sources: TxDOT, city of Austin



3. Loop 360 entrance/exit lanes


TxDOT is adding extended entrance and exit lanes on Loop 360 to improve intersections with Walsh Tarlton Lane, the Barton Creek Square Mall entrance, MoPac and the intersection just south of MoPac in Austin. A left-turn lane will also be added on the northbound frontage road of MoPac at Loop 360.
Timeline: February 2016-spring 2017
Cost: $6.44 million
Funding sources: TxDOT



4. 5. RR 620 intersections


TxDOT will add a traffic signal on RR 620 at Dave Drive and a traffic signal at Oak Grove Boulevard in northern Lakeway. Kelli Reyna, TxDOT Austin District public information officer, said the agency routinely studies major intersections to see if signals would be beneficial and determined that the intersections warrant a traffic signal.
Timeline:  November-May 2017
Cost: $150,000 for each traffic signal totaling $300,000
Funding sources: TxDOT



6. Traffic signal at Lohmans Crossing Road and Lohmans Spur


Construction of a traffic signal at the intersection of Lohmans Crossing Road and Lohmans Spur will begin in August. City staff was authorized by Lakeway City Council on Feb. 16 to advertise and receive bids for the project.


City Manager Steve Jones said that although few collisions have been recorded at this intersection, more accidents are expected as traffic increases. He said a signal should make Lohmans Spur easier to use, and a traffic study showed a signal was warranted at the intersection.
Timeline: April (bids)-August (completion)
Cost: $246,500-$275,000
Funding sources: city of Lakeway Capital Reserve Fund



7. MoPac toll lanes


Upon completion the highway will have one new lane in each direction from Parmer Lane to Cesar Chavez Street that will be tolled. Current construction includes bridge widening, building sound walls, installing conduit and cables to support the toll-collection and intelligent transportation systems, and completing the relocation of temporary ramps. The timeline was delayed from a fall 2015 completion to late 2016.
Timeline: late 2013-late 2016
Cost: $204 million
Funding sources: federal and state funds



8. Flint Rock Road

May 9 temporary closure of Wild Cherry Road until late 2016.
Timeline: October 2015-early 2017
Cost: $9.2 million total with
47 percent funded by the city of Lakeway and 53 percent funded by Travis County
Funding sources: city of Lakeway, Travis County
