REMINDER: Public Comment Opportunity: Draft Transportation Criteria Manual

The City of Cedar Park is developing its own Transportation Criteria Manual (TCM), a technical guide that supports the goals and policies of the Mobility Master Plan (MMP). Unlike the MMP, which is a policy document, the TCM establishes clear, locally appropriate design standards and consolidates transportation regulations into a single, easy-to-use resource.

Key reasons for creating a Cedar Park TCM include considering other municipal design guidelines and crafting a TCM specifically tailored to Cedar Park's unique needs on shared-use paths, safe crossings, traffic signals, and modern intersection design, all aligned with the MMP.

We invite the community to review the draft TCM and share feedback during the public engagement period from October 10 through November 10.
