The proposed TX-23 portion of thecorridor will be built on the existing infrastructure of Highway 190 and run from Interstate 10 just west of Iraan, through Eldorado and all the way to Augusta, Georgia. This is exciting news for the residents of Schleicher, Crockett and Pecos Counties, said U.S. Representative Will Hurd who represents these counties. Transportation infrastructure is a proven driver of jobs and economic development. Hurd supported the legislation and helped negotiate the compromise legislation between House and Senate versions. This is an exciting win for the communities of Iraan and Eldorado, who are sure to see an uptick in business and commerce with the development of this new interstate. Ilook forward to one daytraveling downI-14 in the 23rd Congressional District of Texas." The timeline for the completion of thecorridor will be dependent upon numerous factors, including state and local funding and environmental and route studies. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
