After two years of waiting on a response from the federal government, members of the Four Points Traffic Committee have initiated a new strategy in the effort to build a secondary access road to Vandegrift High School and Four Points Middle School, according to Pam Waggoner, vice president of Leander ISD Board of Trustees and founder of the FPTC. She said the community will play a crucial role in the effort.
“The next and most important piece of this is the community,” Waggoner said.
LISD hosted a public forum for the community regarding the construction of a second access road on May 30 at 6:30 p.m. at VHS. At the meeting, district officials were scheduled to share the history of construction of the two campuses, safety concerns and traffic congestion in the area, along with next steps for obtaining federal approval for the project.
“There’s a lot of new residents in this area,” Waggoner said. “They don’t know the history of the Four Points area. It’s a way to bring new residents up to speed.”
