Our Methodology →Newly Released Map Shows Project Mustang Site and Two Potential County Road Alignments
Williamson County records produced August 18 include a detailed Kimley-Horn concept exhibit showing the proposed Project Mustang site layout together with two potential 136-foot future County roadway alignments. The exhibit also identifies detention ponds, floodplain, pipeline and electric easements, the railroad, and the existing US 79 median break.
Conceptual exhibit: This map does not establish a final road alignment, survey, construction plan, or Williamson County approval.
