“It’s a real credit to the team working on these projects that we’re able to say we’ll be delivering these projects in accordance with our eight-year goal,” Trimble said in a statement.

That will bring us to about half of our program in bid and construction by the end of calendar year. 'We are anticipating-between our work, signals, bike and projects, and other projects-about $150 million worth of work will go to bid and construction this year. We will also be moving several of our larger design-bid-build projects into bid and construction this year,' Corridor Program Office Director Mike Trimble told members of City Council's mobility committee March 10. “We have over 20 critical safety and mobility improvements that we’ve already completed as part of this program. The corridor office said it remains on track to have all bond-backed projects completed or underway by 2024. Money has already gone toward intersection and traffic signal updates, new sidewalks and bicycle lanes, and other pathways. This year's planned work along nine segments of the city's major arterials, such as North Lamar Boulevard, Slaughter Lane, Burnet Road and Riverside Drive, stems from the $482 million dedicated to corridors out of the total $720 million 2016 bond. The Austin Corridor Program Office continues to make progress on the nearly $500 million in transportation upgrades it is overseeing following passage of the city's 2016 mobility bond, with around $150 million in safety and other mobility projects expected to get off the ground in 2022.
