Georgetown Transportation Plan Website

Study Purpose

The purpose of this study is to develop an Overall Transportation Plan for the City of Georgetown, which will include recommended transportation improvements needed to accommodate travel demands though the Year 2025. An implementation program that prioritizes the recommended Plan improvements will also be developed and include a short-range (2003 to 2007), intermediate-range (2008 to 2013), and long-range (2013 to 2025) program. Located in Central Williamson County, Georgetown is the county seat of the fifth fastest growing county in the United States (US Census Bureau, 4/29/02), and is the northern anchor of the fast growing Austin/San Antonio Corridor. The city is projected to continue to experience population and employment growth, resulting in associated mobility and access improvement needs. Potential highway improvements to be considered include roadway widenings and/or extensions, bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure, and transit options.

The study will involve an evaluation of various transportation improvements and will consider impacts related to traffic/mobility, engineering/costs, and environmental/land use criteria. This evaluation will provide detailed technical information regarding the impacts of transportation improvements and new location alignments, as well as other selection criteria to use when evaluating proposed alternatives for inclusion in the Transportation Improvement Program.

Study Area | MAP |

The study area for this project is the City of Georgetown and its extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ). Major roadways in the study area include I-35, State Highway 29, FM 2338, FM 971, FM 1460 and RM 2248. The area will also be served by the new SH 130 Toll Road, which will originate in Georgetown and parallel I-35 on the east southward to Seguin. Transit options, operated by the Capital Area Rural Transportation System (CARTS), also exist within Georgetown and Williamson County, with connections to Austin and neighboring counties.
