The 2016 Mobility Bond provides $17 million for preliminary engineering, design and construction of safety and mobility improvements on Spicewood Springs Road between Loop 360 and Mesa Drive. Improvements have not been designed but may include expansion from a two-lane section to a four-lane divided roadway, along with signals, sidewalks, bike facilities, and driveway reconstruction.
