That demo project was done by a research institute at Texas A&M. TxDOT never followed it up and as best I can tell has no plans to ever do so. I see TxDOT as being anti-bike in a passive-aggressive sort of way. In its defense, this merely reflects the mainstream of Texas thinking.

A carfree person is somewhat limited in route scouting ability, but I do what I can. I posted that Austin to Georgetown route (with all its shortcomings) on a local bike wiki last night and it got 62 hits in less than 24 hours.
