1. As we all head back to work today, Sept. 6th, please plan for extra travel time! The City of Round Rock will be performing maintenance on traffic signals near the NE corner of IH-35 and SH-45 access roads. There will be moving lane closures at that time that could delay traffic.(Facebook)
2. The Brazos River Basin contracts with local municipalities like: Round Rock, Pflugerville, and Hutto for water supply. With the worst drought since 2011, they are planning to expand water supply and wastewater treatment capacities not just to keep up with supply in the present, but for the projected next decade of growth estimated at doubling the population counts of today.
