TxDOT PARTNERSHIP
The Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) is planning to reconstruct I-35 between US 290 East and SH 71/Ben White Boulevard as part of the I-35 Capital Express Central Project. Initial plans for the first significant upgrade in 50 years to this approximately 10-mile stretch call for removing the upper decks and lowering the highway between Airport Boulevard and Lady Bird Lake. Our Future 35 will leverage this major State investment to achieve positive outcomes for the Austin community.
TxDOT + City of Austin
Our Future 35's new caps and stitches will be constructed on top of the newly sunken freeway. While the two projects work together, Our Future 35 will not address the roadway elements included in TxDOT's scope.
