H.B. No. 4164 amends the Transportation Code to enhance notice requirements for state highway projects. Specifically, it adds a new subsection (d) to Section 203.022, which mandates that if the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) does not receive a response from a property owner within 60 days of mailing a notice, the department is required to make a reasonable effort to locate the property owner and provide notice through personal delivery.

This bill aims to ensure that property owners are adequately informed about highway projects that may affect their property, thereby improving communication and transparency between TxDOT and the public. The provisions of this act will take effect on September 1, 2025.
