TxDOT’s website describes UTP as “an intermediate programming and development ‘road map’ that is used to define, prioritize and assign available funding to thousands of Texas transportation projects over a continuous 10-year period.”
The draft expands upon the $69 million in upcoming traffic management technology projects approved in the program’s 2023 plan.
Both new traffic management projects included in the draft are located in the city of Austin, totaling an estimated $925,000 budget for fiscal years 2025-2028.
In the 2023 plan, seven projects for fiscal years 2027-2032 were approved in Austin alone, totaling approximately $17.3 million.
Presented below are the remaining budgets included in the 2023 plan:
- $7.8 million for one project in Iowa Colony
- $13.8 million for two projects in Rosenberg
- $13.6 million for one project in Montgomery County
- $16.7 million for two projects in Hempstead
