Collin County commissioners question why TxDOT removed $490 million in funding for U.S. 380 and Spur 399 right-of-way projects
“The 2024 UTP proposes to reduce funding from two projects on new rights-of-way in Collin County, which totals $490 million,” according to the letter. “We urge the Texas Transportation Commission and TxDOT keep full funding on U.S. 380 and Spur 399 in Collin County.”The letter explains the May draft of the 2024 UTP included $610 million on U.S. 380, but the final UTP only includes $481 million for the project.

Also expressed in the letter, lack of support from the TTC in funding, “especially in light of the county’s sustained phenomenal growth.”Commissioner Duncan Webb, a board member of the Dallas Regional Mobility Coalition, said a letter was also being drafted by the DRMC about the funds being removed.
