For almost a year, we have met with Williamson County residents regarding the State Highway 29 Study, which was launched to proactively address the County’s two greatest issues – safety and mobility. 

Transportation issues are vital because of Williamson County’s steady and continuous growth; we have been the second or third-fastest-growing county in the state for the last seven years.  And, several of our cities have experienced phenomenal growth.  Leander’s population was less than 3,000 people in 1990 and is more than 30,000 today.  Georgetown grew from a city of 28,000 in 2000 to more than 48,000 today.  Hutto was home to 1,250 people in 2000, but more than 17,000 people call it home today.
