The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is looking at the replacement of two other road bridges in the area and is seeking to update the community on the proposed project as well as receive public input.
TxDOT, along with the Amarillo Area Metropolitan Planning Organization, is proposing to replace the bridges located at the intersections of East Amarillo Creek at Irwin Road and at Yucca Avenue in Potter County, according to a meeting notice. TxDOT is conducting a virtual public meeting on the proposed project, as well as in-person options.
TxDOT said this proposed project would replace the existing bridges and add pedestrian accommodations, and it would involve an action in a floodplain.
The virtual meeting, set to be posted online by Tuesday, Oct. 29 at 2 p.m., will consist of a pre-recorded video presentation and will include both audio and visual components. It will remain online for at least 15 days. To view the virtual public meeting, go to www.txdot.gov and search “Potter County Bridge Replacements” at the specified date and time.
