BUDA — The Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO) and the city of Buda are working together to identify, evaluate and recommend potential improvements for the FM 1626 and RM 967 intersection through the form of a study.
The intersection connects two essential commuter roads in Hays County, according to CAMPO, as FM 1626 functions as the primary northsouth route in eastern Hays County, paralleling IH-35, while RM 967 serves as the principal east-west corridor in the area. CAMPO and the city of Buda are conducting this study to identify safety and mobility enhancements and plan as the region continues to grow.
The study will use public input to help CAMPO and the city of Buda define and identify feasible options for improvements to FM 1626 and RM 967. The study will include an analysis of current and projected traffic volumes, crash hotspots, environmental features, needs and concerns identified in stakeholder and public input and will result in recommendations for improvements, according to CAMPO.
