On Wednesday, March 10, TSRT hosted its third roundtable meeting of business leaders and TxDOT officials. The event included many of the area's top business leaders as well as TxDOT Executive Director Amadeo Saenz and Texas Transportation Commissioner William Meadows.  The gathering is one of many that TSRT is organizing across the state to educate business leaders on the pressing transportation infrastructure challenges we face and alternatives for meeting these challenges.  Attendees participated in an active dialogue with TxDOT on the transportation issues facing the Plano area and the state.

Later in the day, TxDOT held a Town Hall Meeting at the City of Plano Council Chambers in partnership with the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG). Representatives from TxDOT, the NCTCOG, and other local and regional transportation partners, answered questions and provides information on projects and funding, including a brief perspective on regional infrastructure requirements for the future.
