Previous public involvement has resulted in the consideration of a single
option through the City of West. The alignment being proposed for the area north
of FM 1858 to south of Marable St. involves a shift to the west to minimize
impacts to properties on the east side.
Two primary options are being considered
for the section of I-35 north of Marable St. to Abbott, as described below.
Intersections will be improved to include left-turn lanes, with U-turns in the
urban areas. Frontage roads will be converted to one-way throughout the entire I-35 corridor.
East Option
The East option holds the existing right of way on the west side and shifts
the alignment of I-35 to the east. About 200 feet of additional right of
way would be needed along the east side for this option. The plots below are
schematics showing portions of the area affected by this option. Note:
File sizes are large and may take some time to download.
West Option
The West option holds the existing right of way on the east side and shifts
the alignment of I-35 to the west. About 200 feet of additional right of
