The city of Austin is still accepting public comments on the Spicewood Springs Road project through Oct. 31. Residents can submit feedback through an online interactive map or email any comments to Cheyenne Krause at [email protected]. Public comments will be used for preliminary engineering recommendations that will be developed over the next few months. City staff will host another meeting next summer for residents to see the draft recommendations. The first open house meeting for the project was Sept. 26, and city staffers answered questions on the project to improve the two-lane roadway from west of Mesa Drive to Loop 360. Possible improvements could include expanding to four lanes, adding a center turn lane and median and bicycle facilities. More information is available at www.austintexas.gov/SpicewoodSpringsRd.
