SAN MARCOS, Texas – The Texas Transportation Commission has given preliminary approval for financing the section of State Highway 45 that will link FM 1626 to MoPac.

Hays County Precinct 2 Commissioner Mark Jones said the $60 million loan to the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority will be coupled with a previous $28.9 million grant from the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization to move the project forward.

The SH 45SW Project's website shows the four-lane road will link MoPac where it meets SH 45 in southern Travis County to FM 1626 just south of Bliss Spillar Road and the Travis/Hays County line. The road will be approximately four miles long.
