Corridor Mobility Program
Corridor Mobility Preliminary Engineering Reports (PERs), or Corridor Mobility Plans, are tools the City of Austin uses to assess a specific corridor's mobility and safety deficiencies and to identify a vision for the corridor's long-term future based on anticipated growth and City transportation policy.
The goal of the Corridor Mobility Plans is to develop recommendations to enhance safety, access, and mobility, thereby designing roadways that serve all users – whether they ride their bikes, walk, take transit, or drive. Corridor Mobility Plans are Preliminary Engineering documents that provide a roadmap for further analysis and development of potential projects.
2016 Mobility Bond
The 2016 Mobility Bond, approved by Austin voters in November 2016, provides $482 million in funding for Corridor Mobility Projects.
