Public Engagement History

Second Phase of Public Engagement (spring/summer 2018)

As part of the Menchaca Road Corridor Mobility Plan development, the City of Austin gathered input from the community through two rounds of public engagement. The second round—during which the public was invited to look at recommended improvements to the roadway—occurred through spring/summer 2018.
