Bulverde eyes land for U S 281 growth planning
Bulverde officials heard a warning from state planners that U S 281 needs 100 to 150 extra feet on each side, expanding right of way to 400 to 500 feet at exits. The project could cost about 35 million locally in Bulverde and 72 million countywide, with federal and state funding and a 10 percent local match. Early proactive planning aims to reduce local costs by preserving right of way and coordinating with developers.
