Through this summer, regional leaders are meeting monthly as part of a new citizen-driven planning effort to develop a blueprint of improvements for the Interstate 35 corridor. The San Antonio/Laredo area, which is represented by the I-35 Corridor Segment Committee Four, will meet again on Thursday March 11 to continue efforts identifying regional needs and potential solutions for the corridor.
Once the segment committee completes its regional blueprint, it will collaborate with the I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee, as well as other I-35 Corridor Segment Committees, to consolidate each regional blueprint into a comprehensive, long-range mobility plan for the entire I-35 corridor. Dubbed, MY 35, this effort will result in a plan that reflects the interests and concerns of citizens for the corridor.
MY 35 calls for a citizens’ perspective on I-35 improvements including identifying corridor needs, conducting public outreach efforts, collaborating with the public and local stakeholders, and creating regional transportation blueprints. The MY 35 effort, which will be overseen by the I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee and the four segment committees, will be blueprint will be given to TxDOT to guide future corridor development.
All Corridor Segment Committee meetings are open to the public, and a complete listing of corridor advisory committees, members and meetings is available online by visiting www.keeptexasmoving.com.
