Change is coming to I-35
Tuesday, February 9, 2021 by Tai Moses
The Lone Star State’s most congested roadway is finally going to get some relief, though nobody can quite agree on what that will look like. The I-35 Capital Express Central project, aimed at improving mobility on I-35 through Central and Downtown Austin, is in the works and plenty of people have had plenty to say about the project. The Texas Department of Transportation is in the process of reviewing comments submitted by more than a dozen city of Austin departments and several thousand Austinites. TxDOT will hold a virtual public scoping meeting from Wed., Feb. 24, to Thu., March 25, “to provide stakeholders an opportunity to view the project presentation and provide comments.” Read the Monitor’s coverage on the topic here, here and here.
