Summary

TxDOT has added a traffic-signal study for the FM 825/US 78 intersection but will avoid counts during holiday months; council and a resident asked staff to seek an estimated timeline for installation.

Chair told the council that TxDOT has slated the intersection at FM 825 and US 78 for a traffic light but that the agency prefers to conduct traffic counts outside major holiday weeks to avoid skewed results. "She's gonna inquire about estimated wait time," the Chair said, explaining studies performed in November and December can be affected by holiday traffic.

Resident Alex Gamble addressed the council to request any update from TxDOT; the Chair repeated the agency's position that a study is planned and staff will request a timeline. No installation date was provided, and staff said they will report back when TxDOT supplies a schedule.
