FM 549 from SH 205 to SH 276 - Public Meeting
CSJ: 1015-01-024
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), in conjunction with Rockwall County, will hold a public meeting regarding the proposed widening of Farm-to-Market (FM) 549 from State Highway (SH) 205 to SH 276 in Rockwall County, Texas. The meeting will be held on Thursday, December 10, 2015, at the Liberty Hall jury room located inside the Rockwall County Courthouse, 1111 East Yellow Jacket Lane, Rockwall, Texas 75087. The meeting will be held in an open house format from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.
The purpose of the Public Meeting is to present the proposed project to the public and receive comments. The proposed project would widen this section of FM 549 from a two-lane undivided roadway to a six-lane divided roadway with a grassy median with curb and gutter. The purpose of the proposed project is to reduce congestion and enhance safety by accommodating traffic volumes which are expected to increase by 50 percent on this section of FM 549 in the next 20 years. The proposed improvements would potentially require approximately 13.8 acres of new right of way (ROW) and 0.8 acre for proposed easements.
Public Meeting: 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. (Open House Format)
