City adjusts signal timing after Riverside Drive crashes

Residents near Riverside Drive and I-35 reported multiple vehicle crashes during a recent weekend of heavy construction. While TxDOT maintains that existing signage meets standards, the City of Austin adjusted signal timings on August 4th following increased congestion. Long-term projects, including the I-35 overhaul and future light rail expansion, ensure significant construction will continue in the area through the 2030s.
