The I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee members are independent citizens who are interested in the future of the corridor and provide TxDOT with a citizen’s view of how the corridor should be developed.

In November 2008, the Advisory Committee issued the Citizens’ Report on the Current and Future Needs of the I-35 Corridor, which stated that the existing capacity on I-35 would not be sufficient for future mobility demands and that more was needed.

Based on past planning efforts, it was time for a new planning direction that started at the community level.  Building on their November 2008 report, the Advisory Committee and the four I-35 Segment Committees were asked to lead a citizen-directed planning effort for the I-35 corridor. 

Work has already begun by the segment committees on this effort.  After each segment committee develops a corridor plan for their area, the Advisory Committee will resume meetings to consolidate the plans into one comprehensive mobility blueprint for the I-35 Corridor.
