The meeting will focus on transportation projects, programs, and policies affecting bicycle use and pedestrian mobility improvements in El Paso and surrounding communities. TxDOT, the MPO, and local partners are working collaboratively on a common goal to connect the multimodal network within the region. There are over 30 proposed projects in El Paso, Presidio, and Brewster counties, including sidewalks, shared use paths, bicycle lanes, pedestrian crossings, and overall infrastructure improvements.
