    1. SH 289 from North of Business 289C to North of CR 60/CR 107 in 
Collin County, Texas. The proposed project would reconstruct and widen 
the roadway from a two-lane undivided roadway to an urban four-lane 
divided highway. The proposed improvements would consist of one 12-foot 
travel lane and one 14-foot outside shared-use lane in each direction, 
and a 42-foot raised center median. The length of the proposed project 
is approximately 2.56 miles. The purpose of the proposed project is to 
improve mobility and traffic operations for existing and future traffic 
demand in the project area. The actions by TxDOT and Federal agencies 
and the laws under which such actions were taken are described in, the 
Categorical Exclusion Determination issued on December 18, 2018, and 
other documents in the TxDOT project file. The Categorical Exclusion

proposed project would replace existing main-lane pavement with new 
pavement and widen to six travel-lanes (three north and three south), 
from four travel lanes, currently, (two north and two south). The main-
lane widening would be accomplished by adding additional lanes to the 
inside of the existing main-lanes. The project also includes adding 
collector-distributor roads, which are roads that parallel and connect 
the main travel lanes and frontage roads. The proposed improvements are 
needed to bring the interstate facility up to current standards for 
design and safety to increase capacity in order to meet future traffic 
volumes. The purpose of the project is to enhance freight mobility and 
address congestion along the IH 45 corridor. The actions by TxDOT and

roadway to a four-lane (ultimately six-lane) urban divided highway with 
a 14-foot outside shared-use lane and an 11-foot inside lane with a 40-
foot raised center median. The length of the proposed project is 
approximately 3.34 miles. The purpose of the proposed project is to 
reduce congestion and enhance safety. The actions by TxDOT and Federal 
agencies and the laws under which such actions were taken are described 
in the Final Environmental Assessment (EA) approved on February 5, 
2019, Finding of No Significant Impact (FONSI) issued on February 5,

    18. IH 30 from Bass Pro Drive to West of FM 2642 Dallas and 
Rockwall Counties, Texas. Beginning at Bass Pro to Horizon, the 
proposed improvements would widen this existing section of the roadway 
to accommodate adding shoulders along the existing four mainlanes 
(currently 3 lanes and one auxiliary lane in each direction). From 
Dalrock Road to SH 205, the proposed improvements would reconstruct and 
widen this section from six mainlanes (3 lanes in each direction) to 
eight mainlanes (4 lanes in each direction), and would reconstruct the 
four discontinuous frontage roads (2 lanes in each direction) to six-
lane continuous frontage roads (3 lanes in each direction), to include 
bicycle and pedestrian accommodations crossing Lake Ray Hubbard. From 
SH 205 to West of FM 2642 (Hunt County Line), the proposed improvements 
would reconstruct and widen this section from four mainlanes (2 lanes 
in each direction) to six mainlanes (3 lanes in each direction), and 
would reconstruct the existing four lane frontage roads (two lanes in 
each direction). Other improvements for this project include the 
reconstruction of interchanges at Horizon Road, FM 548, and FM 35, 
construction of new interchanges at Ben Payne Road/Rochelle Road, 
Blackland Road, and Floyd Road (future Outer Loop), and associated ramp 
modifications. The length of the proposed project is approximately 17 
miles. The purpose of the proposed project is to reduce traffic 
congestion and improve mobility along IH-30 within the project limits. 
The actions by TxDOT and Federal agencies and the laws under which such 
actions were taken are described in the Final Environmental Assessment 
(EA) approved on March 19, 2019, Finding of No Significant Impact 
(FONSI) issued on March 19, 2019 and other documents in the TxDOT 
project file. The EA and other documents are available by contacting

    19. FM 16 from 4 miles west of FM 849 (CR 481-E) to US 69 in 
Lindale, Smith County, Texas. The project includes the resurfacing of 
the existing roadway from 4 miles west of FM 849

[[Page 16320]]

(CR 481-E) to approximately 1250 ft. west of CR 479. After resurfacing, 
this section would be striped to accommodate two 12-ft.-wide lanes in 
each direction with 2-ft.-wide shoulders. No capacity would be added or 
other improvements made within this section. The roadway, between the 
resurfaced section and US 69, would be reconstructed as either three-
lanes or five-lanes, as described below. The length of the project, 
including all transitions, is approximately 4.4 miles. From 
approximately 1250 ft. west of CR 479 to approximately 500 ft. west of 
the intersection with CR 436, FM 16 would be reconstructed as a three-
lane rural highway. From west of CR 436 to the future intersection with 
Toll 49, FM 16 would be reconstructed as a five-lane rural highway. 
From Toll 49 to US 69, FM 16 would be reconstructed as a five-lane 
urban section. The actions by TxDOT and Federal agencies and the laws 
under which such actions were taken are described in the Final 
Environmental Assessment approved on March 8, 2019, the Finding of No 
Significant Impact issued on March 8, 2019, and other documents in the

    21. Deck Plaza from Marsalis Avenue to Ewing Avenue in Dallas 
County, Texas. The proposed project proposes to construct a deck plaza 
over IH 35E from Marsalis Avenue to Ewing Avenue. The deck would be 
constructed to ultimately create an approximate 5.5 acre urban deck 
plaza sponsored by the City of Dallas. The purpose of the proposed 
project is to provide an enhancement to the community, encourage 
economic development opportunities in the area, and improve pedestrian 
and bicycle connectivity in the project area. The actions by TxDOT and
