Refinement of Funding Sources:
The Impact on Proposition 12 Projects
The 82nd Texas Legislature approved the
Texas Department of Transportation to
issue the remaining voter-approved
Proposition 12 bonds in the amount of
$3 billion for transportation projects
across the State.
In partnership with the public, cities,
counties, and the Texas Department of Transportation and following
public meetings in August, the Regional Transportation Council, in
September, approved a list of congested corridors to be improved as
a result of the funding.
Since that time, staff from NCTCOG, the Texas Department of
Transportation and local agencies have coordinated extensively and
determined changes to the list are needed to strategically fund and
expedite projects. Proposed changes to the list of Proposition 12 funded
projects will be presented for public input.
Comments on the proposed changes are due by 5 pm
February 8, 2012 to meet funding requirements and ensure
projects can move forward as planned without delay.
Audio and information from the public meeting
will be posted at www.nctcog.org/meetings.
