Attend the I-35 open house
Monday, August 2, 2021 by Tai Moses
Unless you’ve been living in a cave, you’ve probably heard of the I-35 Capital Express project, a massive $5.6 billion highway project that includes transforming the portion of the aging roadway that divides East and West Austin. The Texas Department of Transportation and the city of Austin are holding an open house to give residents an opportunity to provide feedback on the central portion of the reconstruction project. Participants will also learn more about the Urban Land Institute’s recommendations for a cap-and-stitch solution. Tuesday, Aug. 10, 4-8 p.m., Davage-Durden Student Union, Huston-Tillotson University, 900 Chicon St. Please note, face masks are required on campus.
