There is also the SH45 SW connector. Lot's of opposition to it, but not sure what the ramifications will be. I heard that construction will commence Spring of 2016:

- Some soft barriers, yellow "sticks" were put up to prevent left turns in and out of the HEB at Slaughter / Manchaca to/from Manchaca rd. More improvements are coming to the intersection, dual turn lanes on all approaches and hard median extending 400 yards from the intersection.

Latest thing I have seen is site work for a food trailer court at south first and Slaughter. Overall I think it is a pretty exciting time for far south Austin.
Oh the gun range will be the east side of I-35?
