Bastrop City Council City Council Workshop

The council reviewed capital projects for FY27 and FY28, with a primary focus on the Master Transportation Plan and the East-West connection north of Highway 71. Key discussions included traffic simulation models, the feasibility of a roundabout, intersection safety measures, and the impact of school traffic on local roadway congestion. The council evaluated various intersection designs, considering traffic flow, turn lane requirements, and neighborhood safety, and discussed necessary improvements such as sidewalk connectivity and speed control measures.
