Phase one of the Lubbock Outer Route involved a feasibility study that explored the need for a new road around the city and included the south and west side of Lubbock, from US 84 northwest to US 84 southeast of the city. The feasibility study focused on the need for a new road and its impact on the area. Three public meetings were conducted. Existing roadways were evaluated, funding options were explored and all alternatives were considered, including the option to defer the project.

Phase Two

Phase two of the Lubbock Outer Route study involves a more detailed investigation to determine specific routes within the corridor(s). At least two public meetings are planned within the 12-month study time frame.
