The 183 South Project is a key connection in the City of Austin between the downtown area and the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority will upgrade and widen 8 miles of highway corridor of existing US 183 between US 290 and SH 71 including adding three tolled lanes in each direction and improving the non-tolled general purpose lanes. New bicycle and pedestrian facilities will also be added along the updated corridor.

Things we like about this Pilot Project:
Results of the Pilot Project show normal progress scores for this stage of design and suggest that both Bronze and Silver Ratings are highly obtainable.
