Right-of-Way Acquisition Process Begins for SH 130 Segments 5 & 6 July 2, 2007 Texas Department of Transportation With construction on SH 130 Segments 5 & 6 scheduled for 2009, the right-of-way acquisition process is getting underway. The SH 130 Concession Company, LLC, under the oversight of the Texas Department of Transportation, has already begun sending letters to property owners and tenants in the corridor where SH 130 segments 5 & 6 will be constructed, an area chosen to affect property owners as minimally as possible. The SH 130 Concession Company will design, build and operate the facility for a period of time on behalf of the State of Texas. TxDOT will oversee all right-of-way acquisition and relocation procedures, and the State of Texas will be the record titleholder to all right of way acquired for segments 5 & 6 of SH 130. The 40 miles that make up segments 5 & 6 will connect SH 130 to I-10 east of Seguin to a point north of Lockhart, which meets up with the existing segments that ultimately connect to I-35 north of Georgetown. Construction is estimated to cost $1.35 billion and be complete in 2012.
