Future Transportation Corridor

The FTC is a proposed additional freeway lane in each direction of I-35. Although this lane would require widening the footprint of the interstate mainlanes, it would not require any additional right-of-way. The FTC would provide the single largest mobility gain for I-35. Potential lane types include general purpose lanes, express lanes, transit-only lanes, high occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes or a combination of lane types. Right now, we don't know what type of lane the FTC would be. A Planning and Environmental Linkages Study (PEL), which is currently being conducted, will help determine how this lane will be used. The study will also determine the purpose and need and logical segments for the FTC.
