4 issues in roads with high priority
Rudeloff Road Through Truck Traffic Restriction
The council will hold a public hearing and first reading on banning through truck traffic on Rudeloff Road from FM 78 to SH 46. Residents along that route have dealt with heavy truck traffic, and this ordinance would address it.
Transportation Mobility Master Plan / Thoroughfare Plan adoption
Seguin is replacing its 2017 thoroughfare plan with the road portion of a new multimodal mobility plan. It guides where future roads go as the city grows, so developers must dedicate right-of-way and build their share — the city isn't planning to construct these roads itself. The trails portion is still being finished and will come back later.
FM 78/Ruloff Road intersection safety
A longtime resident's email, read by Council Member Lievens, warns of increasing collisions at the FM 78 and Highway 1620/Ruloff intersection and calls for a four-way signal, with growing traffic expected from the NewQuest development.
Martindale-Strempel roadway improvements
Council awarded a $4.24 million construction contract — 30% under estimate — to fix the confusing dual-road arrangement, with about nine months of construction and a possible new signal at Strempel and SH 123.
