Yeah, the stretch between Deerbrook and Lake Creek is backed by houses, and then the stretch from Hatch to El Salido too. It's narrower than 183 was back when they upgraded it to freeway standards. It would have to be one of those high-elevation jobs like what is done between Lamar and Burnet (i.e. Ohlen).
