Texas Department of Transportation's 2025 Transportation
Alternatives Set-Aside (TA) call for projects
WHEREAS, the City of Wichita Falls owns and operates a hike and bike trail
system known as the Circle Trail that is openly used by the public for transportation and
recreation; and,

sections of the Circle Trail as funding is available, and this section, known as the Hike
and Bike Trail Along Lake Wichita, is the last remaining section of trail before closing the
loop of the Circle Trail; and,
WHEREAS, the Texas Department of Transportation issued a call for projects in
January 2025 for communities to apply for funding assistance through the Transportation

engineering (plans, specifications, and estimates, and environmental documentation) and
the construction of pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure. The TA funds require a local
match, comprised of cash or Transportation Development Credits (TDCs), if eligible. The
City of Wichita Falls would be responsible for all nonreimbursable costs and 100% of
overruns, if any, for TA funds.
