offices to accommodate the companys rapid growth

"I'm hopeful that, working together, we'll develop acorridor that serves both the economic interests of the state and the needs ofeach individual community."The original vision for the TTC, outlined in Crossroads of the Americas:Trans-Texas Corridor Plan, called for a corridor of up to 1,200 feet in widththat would allow for several modes of transportation in addition to utilitytransmission facilities. Since the concept was publicly introduced in 2002,communities along the TTC-35 and I-69/TTC study areas have frequently voicedconcerns over the corridor width, and viewed the idea as a one-size-fits-allconcept, inappropriate for a state as diverse as Texas The corridors are still in early phases of development. As each corridorcontinues to undergo federal environmental impact studies, the public willplay a significant role in shaping the development and path of the roadway.These environmental impact studies and input received from publicparticipation in Corridor Segment Advisory Committees, Corridor AdvisoryCommittees and town hall meetings will eventually determine the final routealignment to satisfy the state's transportation needs.To view the complete document, visit The Texas Department of TransportationThe Texas Department of Transportation is responsible for maintaining nearly80,000 miles of road and for supporting aviation, rail and publictransportation across the state.
