SH 130 drives development
How we got here
A closer look
Madison said that as other neighboring com- munities began to grow, they helped bring in the necessary infrastructure to connect the “ribbon of highway.” “You’ve got to have roads [and] utilities to do anything,” Madison said. “… That’s what SH 130 brought for all of us, the entire region.”
According to Madison, growth along the SH 130 corridor began in Pflugerville. “The corridor was totally empty,” Madison said. “The very first projects came out of the ground in Pflugerville. The very first hotel, conference center, data center [along SH 130]—everything started here. We continue to grow as part of it, and then it grew beyond us into other communities.”
The creation of SH 130 has galvanized the various industries now in the area, as it’s given companies easy access to bring goods to other communities along the corridor. Amy Madison, executive director of Pflugerville Community and Development Corporation, said the toll road has attracted technology and manufacturing jobs to Pflugerville. While the road does not run directly through Round Rock, companies like Link Logistics— developer of industrial park Round Rock 45— utilize the city’s proximity to other highways such as SH 45 that connect to SH 130. “Prominent companies are strategically choosing the Round Rock area for their operations since it is close to SH 130,” said Brian Strohl, senior vice president of Link Logistics’ Central Region Development.
