Construction on Austin Community College's 98-acre Elgin Campus is about 85 percent complete and is expected to be finished in late spring, ACC officials said Jan. 24.
The Elgin Campus, located at 1501 W. Hwy. 290, will be the first community college in Bastrop County and will have capacity for about 1,500 students, according to the ACC website.
"The Elgin Campus will create convenient college opportunities for residents in Elgin, all of Bastrop County, Manor and beyond," said Alexis Patterson Hanes, ACC's senior public information coordinator. "The campus's workforce programs, including sustainable agriculture entrepreneurship and veterinary technician, align with the community's needs and will connect residents to growing industries in the greater Elgin area."
