Court backs concept plan for Webb Road realignment and possible I-35 flyover; no county funds committed
Summary
A multi-phase concept to realign Webb Road and add flyover connectors to I-35 to separate commercial and residential traffic earned court backing; presenters said the concept does not commit county funds and will rely on LMMD, TxDOT and federal funding.
Presenters laid out a multi-phase transportation concept to reduce at-grade railroad crossings and separate commercial truck traffic from local residential traffic in the northern Webb County development area.
The plan, described as a concept plan for coordination with TxDOT and the Legacy Municipal Management District (LMMD), includes Phase 1 roadway upgrades, Phase 2 construction of north-south connectors and a Walker Boulevard flyover to I-35 funded by LMMD/Txdot/federal sources, and Phase 3 coordination for right-of-way and final alignment. Presenters emphasized the county was not being asked to commit its own funds at this stage; the court approved items 38 and 39 to provide a unified plan TxDOT can rely on for next-level funding and design conversations.
"The Item 38 is the order of approving the concept plan we just went over. It just does that. It doesn't commit any county funds," the presenter said, urging coordination with LMMD and TxDOT. Commissioners voted to move forward with the concept and the interlocal cooperation framework for coordination.
