Texas Transportation Corridor (TTC) – Myth vs. Reality |
|
Attachment 1 |
PURPOSE
To address the TTC misconceptions resulting from ongoing public planning
meetings.
DETAILS
Plans call for the TTC to be completed in phases over the next 50 years
with routes prioritized according to Texas’ transportation needs.
Through statewide feedback gathered early in 2004, Texans said a route
roughly paralleling I-35 is needed. The Texas Department of
Transportation produced Myth vs. Reality because of concerns
voiced in recent public TTC-35 meetings. Myth vs. Reality will be
updated periodically to address future concerns, and is being added to
the
www.keeptexasmoving.com Web site.
Aligned with existing highways, railways and utility corridors, the
TTC will speed up the movement of goods and services by providing: 1)
additional driving lanes, 2) options for different modes of travel
including rail, and 3) routes that separate long distance and local
traffic.
COUNTY ACTION
Share this information with your constituents to encourage public input
on this transportation plan.
