Longview News-Journal reports that the North East Texas Regional Mobility Authority (NET RMA) board passed a resolution this week urging TxDOT to take “immediate action” to move up its plans for widening and improving US 271 between Gregg County and the Oklahoma border. Presently, the 271 improvement project is included in the Toll 49, East Texas Hourglass (ETHG) plan, which is in an early stage of development.
