IH 35 Planning and Environmental Linkages Study
Welcome to the Online Home for the IH 35 Planning and Environmental Linkages Study.
It's Time For 35!
What is this study?
The IH 35 Planning and Environmental Linkages Study (IH 35 PEL) is a partnership between the Alamo Regional Mobility Authority and the Texas Department of Transportation to begin the community discussion and visioning for long-term improvements to the Interstate 35 corridor, from FM 1103 into Downtown San Antonio.
This is the first phase in a multi-year study that will help bring environmental clearance to IH 35 for long-term improvements, helping us address the growing congestion on this vital roadway.
Through public meetings and open houses, technical and community advisory committees, and technical and environmental reviews, working together, we can begin to shape the future of this corridor in a way that helps bring a transportation vision forward to guide our community as we look to develop and improve IH 35.
Why do we need to do this study now?
With the growth experienced by the Base Reallignment and Closure Commission (BRAC) efforts, the continued commercial growth and truck traffic on this corridor, and the growth experienced by the San Antonio region, now is the time for 35! We need to start this journey to environmental clearance today so we can be ready, within just a few years, with an environmentally cleared project, ready to be developed, that helps prepare our community to address the congestion we have today, and allows us to be ready for the continued growth that is projected to occur across our region.

This phase of the study will deal with conceptual alternatives for long-term improvements to IH 35, the objectives and issues to be used to evaluate alternatives, and help provide an overview of the study so far.
During the workshop we will offer a presentation multiple times, and provide plenty of opportunity for you to interact directly with the study team to have your questions answered and provide multiple ways for your voice to be heard as part of this process.
