- Mobility and Congestion
- Costs & Funding

Study approach
TxDOT conducted technical analyses and engaged local elected officials, regional organizations, industry and business representatives, members of the public, and other stakeholders throughout the study process from Fall 2021 to Summer 2023. The study was conducted in five phases with four rounds of stakeholder engagement meetings. The phases reviewed existing conditions, assessed needs, identified projects, prioritized projects, and developed an implementation plan as shown in the diagram.
Stakeholder and public engagement
Input collected from stakeholders, both public and private, throughout the study was important to help TxDOT identify transportation needs and prioritize projects to improve safety, connectivity, and mobility along the I-10 corridor.
Key stakeholders
- TxDOT district and division representatives

The results were evaluated to help identify needs and proposed improvement strategies to shape the future of I-10 and the communities it serves.
