This is a Notice of Intent by FHWA, on behalf of TxDOT, to prepare an EIS for the East Branch extension of the President George Bush Turnpike (PGBT) in eastern Dallas County and Kaufman County, Texas. The project sponsor is the North Texas Tollway Authority (NTTA).1 The proposed action would construct an approximately 11-mile, six-lane limited-access toll road connecting I-30 to I-20, passing through Garland, Dallas, Sunnyvale, and Mesquite. The EIS will evaluate multiple build alternatives and a no-build alternative. Identified potential impacts include wetlands, floodplains, farmland conversion, cultural resources, wildlife habitat, and traffic noise. A public scoping meeting is set for August 20, 2024, with comments due by September 19, 2024.2
