CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) will hold an in-person public meeting for the US 77 Odem Project on Thursday.
TxDOT stated that the meeting will be held from 5-7 p.m. at the Odem Junior High School cafeteria, One Owl Square in Odem. For those who cannot attend the meeting, a virtual version will be available at 5 p.m. on the same day.
You can find the virtual meeting on the TxDOT website by searching for ‘US 77 Odem Project Meeting’.
The project spans US 77 from I-37 to FM 1945 south of Sinton and is currently in the environmental study phase.
The proposal includes upgrading part of the existing highway to interstate standards and constructing a new relief route around Odem.
TxDOT says the improvements include two main lanes in each direction, along with overpasses and entrance and exit ramps to maintain connectivity with local roads.
For those individuals attending the in-person meeting, TxDOT staff and consultants will be present to answer questions and receive public comments.
