Austinites will now have access to information on local transportation projects that could impact commutes through a mobile app. <\/p>\n
City leaders celebrated the official launch of CTXGO<\/a> on Oct. 1, a new tool from the Construction Partnership Program<\/a>.<\/p>\n Some context <\/p>\n Participating CPP agencies include the city of Austin, Austin Transit Partnership, CapMetro, the Central Texas Regional Mobility Authority, the Capital Area Metropolitan Planning Organization and the Texas Department of Transportation.<\/p>\n Officials with these agencies began planning for improved coordination and public engagement efforts in 2023 and created the CPP, as previously reported<\/a> by Community Impact. The agencies have a variety of ongoing projects across the metro, including the I-35 Capital Express Central project, the MoPac South project, the Loop 360 Program and Austin Light Rail. <\/p>\n CTXGO is part of those coordination and engagement efforts, which Austin Mobility officials say will bring regional construction information, roadway conditions and travel options together in one place. <\/p>\n How it works <\/p>\n CTXGO operates as both a free mobile app and website<\/a>. Users can select from a variety of map layers<\/a> to see real-time roadway information, including traffic congestion, incidents such as stalled or abandoned vehicles, and what electronic roadway message signs are currently displaying, such as estimated travel times. <\/p>\n
