PROJECT OVERVIEW
This roadway safety project focuses on making everyday travel safer for the people who live, work, shop, and operate businesses along SH 121 - Business between I-35 and Forestbrook Drive in Lewisville. Your opinion and experiences matter, whether you drive, walk, bike, attend school, or manage a business that relies on safe access.
This project is part of the North Central Texas Council of Governments (NCTCOG) program to improve road safety across the 12-county North Texas region. It leverages education, community input, and real-time driving-speed feedback to understand corridor safety challenges and identify practical ways to reduce crashes and injuries.
The project team wants to learn from community members who live along and regularly drive this section of SH 121 - Business by asking them to participate in a survey. The goal of the survey is to determine whether the educational initiatives are making an impact. This project website provides opportunities to learn and share.
