On June 9, TxDOT launched my35.org, a website to keep Texans informed of efforts to improve the I-35 corridor. The new site includes a section on current construction efforts to improve I-35 and one that highlights planning efforts for future improvements to the corridor. 

"With up to ten active construction zones on I-35 at any given time over the next five years, it’s important that construction information be readily available to the traveling public," said Bill Meadows, member of the Texas Transportation Commission, in a TxDOT news release.

The website complements TxDOT's citizen-planning efforts including engaging the four I-35 Segment Committees and the I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee to help determine the best local solutions to congestion on I-35.  Based on the local and regional needs, segment committees will develop their blueprint for long-term corridor improvements that will serve to guide for future TxDOT planning.

The public is encouraged to participate inthe development of the I-35 corridor and provide input at the I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee and segment committees regular meetings.  In addition, the public will be invited to attend planning workshops that will be hosted by the segment committees.

"The launch of my35.org provides a one-stop-shop for all things I-35, which I hope our partners in the affected regions will find helpful," said Meadows.
