Tuesday's Internet Edition, July 08, 2008. Trans-Texas Corridor Meeting to be Held Next Week in Lee County - Continuing the Texas Department of Transportation’s series of meeting to get public input on the proposed Trans-Texas Corridor planned to go from Mexico to Oklahoma through Texas, TxDOT is holding a public meeting regarding the project in Lee County. The Open House forum wil be held on Wednesday, March 9, in Giddings at the American Legion Hall on South Hwy 77 starting at 5 pm and ending at 8 pm. County Judge Evan Gonzales was instrumental in getting this meeting set up in Lee County. Residents will be given an opportunity to find out more information about the proposed corridors, how the project may affect their lives, and give feedback to TxDOT authorities at this meeting. Three of the four corridors proposed go through Lee County. Each of the proposed paths is four to ten miles wide. One goes through the eastern portion of the county, then travels through the City of Giddings. A wider track goes through the west side of Highway 77, traveling through the county. A third proposed path catches the far west corner of Lee County.
