Frisco | March 2022

The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is proposing to construct a project to improve US 380 in Collin County from Coit Road west of McKinney in the Prosper/Frisco area to FM 1827 east of McKinney. Alternatives being considered include new location alternatives around the north side of McKinney (approximately 15 miles long). This notice advises the public that TxDOT will be conducting an in-person meeting and an online virtual public meeting on the proposed project. The same information will be available at the in-person and virtual meeting. NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING Proposed Improvements to US 380 from Coit Road to FM 1827 | CSJs: 0135-02-065, 0135-03-053, 0135-15-002 | Collin County, Texas

The in-person meeting will be held from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. in an open house format where the public may come and go at their convenience and staff will be available to answer questions. The virtual meeting can be viewed Tuesday, March 22 starting at 5:30 p.m. through the end of the comment deadline on Wednesday, April 6 at 11:59 p.m. Materials will be posted to the project website at www.keepitmovingdallas.com/US380EISPublicMeeting and will include a pre-recorded presentation with audio and video components, along with exhibits and an interactive map. The virtual public meeting is not a live event. If you do not have internet access, you may call (214) 320-4469 between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, to ask questions and access project materials. Please note the materials will not be available until March 22, 2022 at 5:30 p.m. An update will be provided on the environmental impact statement (EIS) process including presentation of available environmental findings and design schematics for the build alternatives under consideration. The proposed project would provide an eight-lane freeway with frontage roads to manage congestion and east-west mobility, connectivity, traffic operations, and safety. The proposed project would, subject to final design considerations, require additional right-of-way and potentially displace residences and non-residential structures. Relocation assistance will be available for displaced persons and businesses. Information about the TxDOT Relocation Assistance Program and services and benefits for those displaced and other affected property owners, as well as information about the tentative schedule for right-of-way acquisition and construction, will be available at the in-person public meeting, the project website, or can be obtained from the TxDOT district office by calling (214) 320-4469. All meetings will be conducted in English. If you need an interpreter or document translator because English is not your primary language or you have difficulty communicating effectively in English, one will be provided to you. If you have a disability and need assistance, special arrangements can be made to accommodate most needs. If you need interpretation or translation services or you are a person with a disability who requires an accommodation to participate in the meetings, please contact the TxDOT Public Information Office at (214) 320-4480 no later than March 15, 2022. Advance notice is required as services and accommodations require time to arrange. Comments from the public regarding the proposed project are requested and can be submitted at the public meeting, online at the project website, by email to Stephen.Endres@txdot.gov, or by mail to Mr. Stephen Endres, P.E., TxDOT Dallas District Office, 4777 East US Highway 80, Mesquite, Texas 75150-6643. Verbal comments may be submitted by leaving a voicemail at (833) 933-0440. All comments must be received or postmarked before Wednesday, April 6, 2022. If you have any general questions regarding the proposed project or the public meetings, please contact the TxDOT Project Manager, Mr. Stephen Endres, P.E., at (214) 320-4469 or Stephen.Endres@txdot.gov. The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried-out by TxDOT pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated December 9, 2019, and executed by FHWA and TxDOT.
