Public Notice        Project Plans

The Texas Department of Transportation Beaumont District proposes to discharge an estimated 5,319 cubic yards (CY) of fill material which would in-turn permanently impact 13.3 acres of palustrine forested wetland, 0.77 acres of palustrine emergent wetland, 0.15 acres of palustrine scrub-shrub wetland, 0.02 acres of estuarine wetland, and 0.01 acres of perennial stream.  Listed temporary impacts include 3.30 acres of perennial stream, 0.04 acres of intermittent stream, and 0.02 acres of ephemeral stream.  The applicant is proposing to construct a new Sabine River bridge crossing in a more stable section of the river approximately 1,510 feet south (downstream) of the existing bridge, which requires realigning approximately 2.6 miles of SH 63.  Portions of the existing SH 63 roadway would remain to provide access to adjoining properties, and new cul-de-sacs would be constructed on either side of the river.  The existing bridge and the approach roadway segments located between the existing bridge and proposed cul-de-sacs would be removed.
