RM967 Right Turn Lane AT FM1626
Project Status
A new right-turn lane will be constructed on RM967 from Canyon Wren Drive to FM1626. The addition of this right-turn lane will accommodate westbound traffic and mitigate queuing from the intersection of FM1626 and RM967. During the preliminary and final design phases, the City of Buda will coordinate and engage with potentially impacted residents, businesses, and property owners to participate in the planning process.
