County Judge Ted Myatt said today that the County
hopes to begin the procuremnt of right-of-way for the
Prairie Springs Fami-to-Market Road by late summer.
The State Highway Department is now preparing engi-
neering data and right-of-way instruments on the pro-
ject. The new road will begin at Highway 174 some
2*4 miles southwest of Burleson and extend south ap-
proximately 5.1 miles to FM 917.
Judge Myatt said that three other new FM projects
have also been authorized for Johnson County. “The
Commissioners Court is very pleased about this entire
program.'” Myatt stated. “We feel that is will be a
fine contribution to our FM
road •yttem."
“We plan to begin right-of-
way procurement as soon as the
planning is finished by the
Highway Department and work
steadily until all of the projects
are finished." he added.
