COOKE COUNTY, Texas — The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is offering both virtual and in-person participation options for residents interested in learning about the US 82 Relief Route feasibility study affecting Cooke County.
The study examines potential relief route options from FM 2739 to Interstate 35 and from I-35 to the Grayson County line within Cooke County. TxDOT's feasibility analysis will investigate existing and future transportation needs along this corridor, which serves as a critical east-west route through North Texas.
Residents unable to attend the virtual meeting can participate in person and view the same presentation delivered during the online session. This hybrid approach ensures broader community participation in the planning process for this significant infrastructure project.
The US 82 corridor plays a vital role in regional transportation and economic development. Input gathered during the public meeting will help shape TxDOT's recommendations for addressing current and projected traffic demands. Meeting details and project information are available on the TxDOT Wichita Falls District website.
