Pursuant to Texas Administrative Code, Title 43, §2.108, this notice advises the public that a final environmental assessment (EA) is available for public review and the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) has issued a finding of no significant impact (FONSI) for the proposed SH 5 project from SH 121 to County Road (CR) 375 in the cities of Melissa and Anna, Collin County, Texas.

The environmental review, consultation, and other actions required by applicable Federal environmental laws for this project are being, or have been, carried-out by TxDOT pursuant to 23 U.S.C. 327 and a Memorandum of Understanding dated December 16, 2014, and executed by FHWA and TxDOT.

TxDOT is proposing the reconstruction and widening of State Highway (SH) 5 from SH 121 to County Road (CR) 375 in the cities of Melissa and Anna, Collin County, Texas. The proposed project would expand SH 5 to a four-lane divided urban roadway. The improved roadway would have an inside 12-foot wide travel lane, 14-foot wide outside shared use lane, and five to six-foot wide sidewalks with curb and gutter in each direction. The traffic lanes would be separated by a 42-foot wide raised central median. The proposed ROW width varies from 94 to 200 feet wide with a usual ROW width of 140 feet. The proposed project length is approximately 8.58 miles.
