Funds could help expansion near FM 1100, pedestrian safety improvements
City Council approved moving forward on a federal grant application May 5 to help advance planning for County Line Road Phase 3, a project Elgin officials say remains a top priority.
The resolution authorizes City Manager Robert Eads to seek services from Kimley-Horn Engineers for grant writing connected to the U.S. Department of Transportation’s Safe Streets and Roads for All (SS4A) program. According to officials, SS4A aims to reduce traffic fatalities and serious injuries through planning studies and infrastructure improvements.
Public Works Director Michael Gonzales said the grant could help advance planning for the section of County Line Road connecting to FM 1100, including pedestrian improvements like sidewalks.
