When will complete environmental studies be performed for the proposed outer loop?
Complete environmental studies, in the form of an Environmental Assessment or Environmental Impact Statement, have not yet been performed for the New Braunfels Outer Loop. In fact, the New Braunfels Outer Loop Study was never intended to produce an environmental document but was instead a very preliminary study to identify a general corridor for the proposed outer loop. The proposed outer loop is a long term project and will likely take many years and several additional studies, both technical and environmental, for various portions of the loop before it ever comes to fruition. Further, the No-Build, or do nothing option, is still a possibility as there is no identified funding for the proposed outer loop.
