Did you know that RM-620 will still be in a “failing state” based on TXDOT’s level of service measure even after the already funded improvements at the RM-620/RM-2222 intersection are completed in 2020? Those who travel near Anderson Mill Road and RM-620 know this very well today. The RM-620/2222 and RM-620/Anderson Mill intersections as well as RM-620/Cavalier/Aria Drive in Lakeway will continue to be at an “F” level of service in 2020 with a forecast for the corridor to get much worse in the years ahead according to the TXDOT RM-620 corridor study concluded in 2017. This study identified the next step needed to address the dire congestion and safety issues already experienced along these segments of RM-620. The proposal is to go from a 4-lane flush median highway to a 6-lane raised median divided highway. The funding for this project north Mansfield Dam is NOT being prioritized - despite lower urgency projects being on the funding list - learn more and take action now click the link below:

RM620 - a lack of funding for improvements was highlighted in the Statesman yesterday and discussed on KLBJ this morning. TXDOT's 2017 study result made it pretty clear that an expansion to six lanes and a divided median is the next needed step: “The main improvement — constructing a raised median along the entire length of RM 620 and widening from four lanes to six lanes from SH 71 to Lakeway Boulevard and Quinlan Park Road to US 183 — would substantially reduce delay and improve safety by reducing conflict points along the corridor” - make sure to give CAMPO your feedback (omments@campotexas.org) and let your representative know that we need to FUND-RM620 ASAP:

RM-620 Call to Action / April 2018

We NEED YOU to help us get the attention of officials to fund RM-620 improvements. While a solution has been identified and the importance has been demonstrated, the RM-620 corridor from US-183 to Mansfield Dam has been left off the planning list. You will want to read this link! This is where you can make a difference! Rally your neighbors let your friends along RM620/2222 and in nearby Cedar Park know about this effort!

We need your help to do the following, in priority order (first read the link so you know the background)
1. Ask CAMPO for prioritization of improving RM-620 to a divided 6-lane highway north of Mansfield Dam to US-183 NOW during the CAMPO April input window for projects.
Please EMAIL (comments@campotexas.org)
2. Contact your local representatives (City of Austin, Travis County, City of Cedar Park and Williamson County) and tell them it is critical to provide partner funding for RM-620 improvements from US-183 to Mansfield Dam. (Lakeway/Bee-Cave has done this and the similar project south of Mansfield Dam is on the proposed project list).
3. Take the regional arterials SURVEY (www.surveymonkey.com/r/arterials18) and leave comments on need for RM-620 improvements (this is separate from the email in step 1).

RM-620 Traffic Safety Update / Actions: We had a very productive SRNA Board meeting on Tuesday, March 20 with community members and officials in Steiner Ranch. Please click on the link to our meeting summary. The summary includes actions in progress to improve safety along RM-620 and new ideas being investigated.

We also talked about the bigger fixes for safety which center around the installation of a raised median between directions of traffic on RM-620 and expansion to six lanes - these are NOT yet funded so stay turned on how you can help!

Thank you to all who attended - we look forward to seeing you again next month.
