FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQs)
The Construction Partnership Program (CPP) is a joint agency effort to coordinate an unprecedented number of infrastructure improvement projects that will affect Central Texans and those traveling through Central Texas for years to come. These construction projects translate into more than $20 billion in funding committed to make travel in Central Texas safer and more reliable.
CPP Partners include the City of Austin, CapMetro, Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT), Austin Transit Partnership, Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (CTRMA), Travis County, and the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization (CAMPO).
CPP will serve the Central Texas region, including Travis, Williamson, Hays, Bastrop, Caldwell, and Burnet counties.
Over the next 10 years, more than 35 major construction projects will be underway, and Central Texans will benefit from partnerships and coordination among all the agencies building these large infrastructure improvements.
For example, I-35, MoPac Expressway, Congress Avenue and Lamar Boulevard are all anticipated to be under construction simultaneously. This could disrupt north-south travel in Austin. Through the CPP, the agencies building these projects would be able to identify major conflicts and impacts in advance and proactively notify the public of roadway travel conditions, allowing Central Texas drivers to plan their routes around construction.
CPP’s mission is simple. Keep Central Texans safe, moving, and informed during the next decade of major construction. CPP aims to streamline communication and enhance coordination among transportation agencies in order to help people manage the impacts of construction on their daily lives. Together, the CPP partners hope to set the foundation for long-term interagency success in delivering these important mobility and safety projects for Central Texas.
CPP will be a one-stop resource for travelers to get updated information and inquire about construction work, road closures and detours. Often, travelers don’t know which agency is responsible for construction along different roadways, leaving the public to transfer back and forth between multiple agencies to find the right person for their questions.
We are currently developing a public information platform that will allow the public to find construction and road closure information in one easy-to-use location.
