A Thoroughfare Plan is a long-term transportation planning document that identifies current and future roadway needs and offers recommendations to improve mobility, increase safety, support economic growth, and manage development.

Rockwall County is experiencing ongoing growth and development. In 2017, when the last County Thoroughfare Plan efforts began, Rockwall County’s population was over 96,700; today, in 2026, it is around 135,500; and by 2050, it is projected to be 245,000. This rapid growth underscores the importance of planning now.

Updating the plan ensures that transportation strategies reflect current conditions and are based on the latest data, leading to relevant project and program recommendations.
