IronTiger Posted February 17, 2014 Posted February 17, 2014 Probably the wrong forum to ask, but will the expansion of the Ben White freeway (290) ever extend to Oak Hill? They did a lot of freeway clearance 10 years ago, but nothing was ever built. Is anything in the planning stages, or were all those businesses razed for nothing? Quote
luciaphile Posted February 18, 2014 Posted February 18, 2014 A few people are paying attention, and have gone to expense and trouble to offer an alternative. I expect TxDoT is waiting for them to die: http://oakhillgazette.com/featured/2013/09/txdot-working-on-new-alternative-concept-for-oak-hill-parkway-project/ Quote
IronTiger Posted February 18, 2014 Author Posted February 18, 2014 I should have figured that it was community opposition, but I really hope that they will settle with something since 290 is one of the few east west corridors in Austin. Oh well... Quote
