TxDOT PUBLIC HEARING TONIGHT

  

A public hearing is set for tonight on the proposed improvements to the intersection of Highway 36 from Highway 290 to Business 36.

Project information, including a map of the exact location of the work along with the planned layout and an environmental impact study will all be available prior to the meeting, set for 6:00 p.m. at the Brenham Elementary School on West Blue Bell Road.  A description of the project will be followed by an opportunity for public comment.  Public viewing of the project information will begin at 5:00 p.m.

The work includes widening Highway 36 to four lanes from 290 to Business 36—a distance of one point two miles. Also proposed is replacing the existing bridge over the railroad, Little Sandy Creek, Benton Drive, and Lounge Road to bring it up to current design standards.  Two new bridges would be constructed for northbound and southbound traffic.  The proposed project would also include two frontage roads with an entrance and exit ramp west of the bridges and a U-turn under the bridge on the west side.  No additional right-of-way will be required to accommodate the improvement and there would be no relocation of homes or businesses.
