I received the email below two days ago and thought my neighbors would find interest in it.
''2025 Campo Plan shows Escarpment as a 4 lane Major Arterial Divided Roadway.
The woman I spoke with on the phone said Campo keeps bouncing back and forth between 4 or 6 lane for the future plan of Escarpment. To date it is planned for 4 lanes.
Go to:

Click on Roadway table (in blue)
Find Escarpment alphabetized on the left.

FYI: Remember this Jim O'Reilly letter?

''Extending Escarpment will reduce traffic within Circle C and therefore increase safety. Escarpment will never become ''another Brodie.'' Any Austin driver headed south will use either MoPac or 1826. No driver will use a one lane residential road with a 35 to 40 mile per hour speed limits, reduced to 20 during school times, that has several traffic lights and stop signs as a shortcut. Escarpment is a right of way owned by the City, however in the Stratus Agreement, Escarpment, both to the north and the south is designed as one lane with a bike lane. The design of Escarpment will not change...''
