Project Overview

The Mobility Authority is considering improvements to US 290 between SH 130 and SH 95 South to increase mobility and safety along a highly congested corridor.

The Mobility Authority has begun an environmental study and schematic design that will evaluate the extension of the 290 Toll from its current end point near SH 130 in Travis County farther east to SH 95 South in Bastrop County, covering approximately 15 miles.

While the proposed improvements will be determined through this study, the initial considerations include:

• The addition of tolled mainlanes alongside existing non-tolled general-purpose lanes.
• Improvements to key cross streets, including signalized intersections at several cross streets.
• Potential pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure enhancements where feasible.
