Texas Law of Streets and Alleys: A Handbook

Who owns streets? Is there a difference between streets and alleys or between urban streets and rural roads? When streets are widened, should the widening strips be acquired in fee simple or by easement? What street encroachments can cities permit? What limits are there on cities’ discretion? These questions and more are answered in this convenient handbook. If you represent a city or are a city official or if you deal with cities or represent people who do, this handbook will help you in your work.
