Hutto use crack-and-seal funds for road repairs The city of Hutto completed construction on temporary road repairs to County Road 137 on Feb. 9. The background Hutto City Council approved road improve- ments for CR 137 south of the FM 1660 intersec- tion, after recent winter storms caused damage to the roadway. Originally intended for a comprehensive reconstruction project, CR 137 was elevated in priority by council members and city staff for road improvements. Rather than take away from other high-priority road projects, such as in the downtown area or on CR 133, council agreed to take the needed $200,000 from the budgeted crack-and-seal fund and use it for the CR 137 temporary repairs.

What else? The road is expected to receive further improvements as part of the city’s Capital Improvement Plan. The city is in the design phase of a project to add an additional lane to allow easier access to Farley Middle School and other construction sites adjacent to CR 137. Improvements to FM 1660 and CR 137 are also part of the work.
