Travis County Transportation Blueprint Amendment #1 Open House

The Travis County Transportation Blueprint is the long-range multi-modal transportation plan for Travis County that was approved by Commissioners Court on July 16, 2019. It is a 30-year plan that identifies future transportation needs and prioritizes potential project improvements in the unincorporated area of Travis County (areas outside of a city’s limits).

• Plan for future transportation projects. The Blueprint identifies and prioritizes transportation needs. Projects included in the plan still require additional planning, funding, design, environmental review, right-of-way acquisition, and other applicable steps before construction.
• Support development review. Project descriptions and general roadway alignments help the County preserve and acquire right-of-way for future arterial roadways.
• Inform transportation analysis and mitigation. The Blueprint helps determine when development may require contributions toward needed roadway infrastructure.
• Plan capital improvement projects. The Blueprint informs projects that may be funded through voter-approved bond elections, Certificates of Obligation, grants, or partnerships.
• Coordinate regional transportation planning. The Blueprint supports coordination with regional and local transportation partners, including CAMPO, TxDOT, CapMetro, CTRMA, neighboring counties, and cities.

Through the life of a plan, changes are required. A Transportation Plan Amendment is the process used to formally update the County’s adopted long-range transportation plan.  These are needed over time as the County grows, development patterns change, new information becomes available, or transportation priorities evolve. Amendments may include:

• Adding a proposed transportation project and alignment
• Removing a project that is no longer needed or appropriate
• Modifying an existing project or roadway alignment
• Updating a roadway classification or project scope 

The County has two amendment cycles per year (Spring and Fall) when proposed plan amendments can be requested by the public, developers, and agencies.

A Plan Amendment request form can be requested by emailing: [email protected]. A staff member will review the request and provide a determination on amendment type and the cycle in which it would be considered.

There are two Plan Amendment types: Administrative Amendments and Regular Amendments.

Regular amendments go through a public review process before they are considered by Commissioners Court. Residents, property owners, businesses, and other stakeholders can review proposed changes, ask questions, and provide feedback.
