A Path for Removing the Medians on Texas Avenue
We The People...
By placing a Charter Amendment on the November ballot, the citizens of Bryan can vote on removing the medians. In order to achieve this goal, we need 2,500 signatures collected one at a time on a paper petition. This can not be done online.
The petitions were turned in Tuesday June 30th, at 11am. It will take the City Secretary awhile to verify that we have enough. The minimum is 2,303. We turned in over 2,750.
The next step is for the council to be notified and for the council to order the election.
Many thanks to all those who circulated petitions and many thanks to all those citizens who took time to sign so that their voices could be heard.
We will update this website as further developments in the process occur.
Check the website for more dates and times.

What's New
Recently, the BCS Median Survey Team took to the streets to alert the residents of Garden Acres and North Oakwood sub-divisions of TxDOT's plans to install a new traffic signal in lieu of removing medians. Needless to say, residents are not happy neither with their elected officials nor state agencies. Click here to see more.
Texas Avenue Medians were "Never About Safety"
In discussions with both TxDOT and The City of Bryan, we learned that the Texas Avenue median project was advertised as a "beautification project" that used federal transportation funds. Click here to learn more.
