One key barrier the plan aims to address is SH 130, a major divide that limits east-west access across the city. Logan Ott, president of Strong Towns Pfluger- ville, said safety should be the top priority. “As nice as trees are, [and] as nice as beautiful trails are, keeping people alive while they’re moving around the city is the No. 1 thing that we want,” Ott said.
A major focus of the plan is closing gaps in connectivity and expanding the city’s 71-mile trail system to better link neighborhoods with schools, parks and commercial centers. “This master mobility plan really worked hard to focus on safety, connectivity and resiliency for Pflugerville because … those connections really help to reduce congestion and to create safer pathways around Pflugerville,” Planning Manager Yasmin Turk said.
While the plan doesn’t set a construction timeline, it will guide which projects are added to the city’s Capital Improvement Program. Officials describe it as a “future- proofing” tool, helping Pflugerville meet evolving infrastructure needs. Some major roadway projects are already in progress. Kelly Lane is being widened from two to four lanes between West Falcon Pointe Drive and east of Moorlynch Avenue. Phase 2— now nearing completion—includes a roundabout at Vilamoura Street. Further phases of Colorado Sand Drive are also outlined in the master plan, eventually expanding it to a four-lane divided roadway between Copper Mine Drive and Lone Star Ranch Boulevard.
