For the Water, For the People, For the Future. The Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority (CTRMA) is proposing a major MoPac South expansion–adding new toll and auxiliary lanes across 8.8 miles over the Edwards Aquifer Recharge Zone. The proposal calls for 6-8 additional lanes, disrupting wildlife habitats, increasing traffic and pollution, putting our water at risk from increased polluted runoff and years of construction. and neighborhoods. Despite the scale of the project, CTRMA is pushing this project forward without a full Environmental Impact Statement, and less harmful alternatives are not being considered.
