ROCKWALL COUNTY, TX (March 20, 2026) — Rockwall County has partnered with Freese and Nichols, Inc., an engineering and planning firm, to update its Thoroughfare Plan in preparation for continued growth and evolving transportation needs across the region.
This long-range plan will help guide future roadway connections, preserve key corridors, and support safe and efficient travel throughout the County. The update builds on the County’s Strategic Plan 2050 and the previously adopted 2019 Thoroughfare Plan, incorporating updated data, regional coordination, and input from the community.
Residents are encouraged to share their feedback by attending one of two upcoming Town Hall meetings. Each meeting will include an open house, presentation, and breakout session.
