Body

The City of Round Rock’s Transportation Master Plan provides guidance on existing and proposed transportation facilities throughout the city, to support the mobility needs of our citizens and to promote our continued economic growth and vitality.  The plan helps to guide the short and long term implementation of projects, and it serves as a clearing house for all transportation related planning for the city.  In addition to roadways, the plan will include analyses and recommendations for our bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and it will incorporate the recently completed Transit Master Plan. 

 

The Transportation Master Plan was originally developed and adopted in 1997, with updates occurring in 2003 and 2010.  City staff conducted a request for qualifications process to select a consultant for this project.  The unanimous choice of the selection team was HDR Engineering, Inc. 

 

This contract with HDR Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $500,000 will perform all steps necessary to completely update all aspects of the plan.
