Highland Horizon community on 620????????

The intersections with Cornerwood, Great Oaks, O'Connor, and Wyoming Springs will all have additional lanes, including dedicated right turn lanes.

I think it will make it safer to drive on 620 but certainly won't be safer to cross as a pedestrian (due to the additional width, right turn lanes, etc.) ... which could be important to residents of HH because the rest of the MUD (including community center) is on the other side of 620.

Well, for our first couple of years here, we VERY seldom went that way to exit Avery Ranch(must admit I'm drawn to Johnny T's BBQ, Bush's Chicken, Wash Tub and Sprouts headed toward IH35). Guess we can revert to our old ways of going west toward Parmer for the next year or two! That HEB is already a fire drill...can't wait until they try to add dedicated right turn lanes. Where will the 'We Buy Gold' sign twirler hang out?

10scoachrick,

We're drawn west towards Z'Tejas, McDonalds, and Shipley Donuts! And of course your future location of Trader Joes at Avery Ranch, even though Highland Horizon also has a nice space in front for TJ.

About the sign twirler, remember they are building a raised median for him!
