The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is responsible for State and Federal highways, several of which are within the Town of Lakeside and its ETJ. TxDOT has approval jurisdiction for all streets and driveways that access these highways. Such jurisdiction includes driveway access locations and sizes, median openings and acceleration/deceleration lanes. It should also be noted that Interstate 20 is a Federally “Controlled Access Interstate” and no access shall be allowed except onto approved locations on frontage roads. Any time a subdivision plat is adjacent to a TxDOT controlled roadway, TxDOT officials will be involved in the reviews for the plat approval process. Should it be deemed that the proposed development will have a detrimental impact on the TxDOT highway, then additional studies or improvements may be required prior to access to the TxDOT facility.
