City Council Set to Designate New Interstate Highway Route Around San Angelo

 

SAN ANGELO – The San Angelo City Council is set to approve an amendment to the Master Thoroughfare Plan for the future interstate highway corridor for I-27 and I-14 during their regular meeting Tuesday.  The agenda includes a map of the proposed route below.  

A new Interstate Highway has been designated for San Angelo and this proposal is to reflect the current concept map for the route along the far north side of the City on the City's long range plan in order to ensure preservation and protection of this future route as development occurs in the area.

This route, shown will be an east-west connection north of FM 2105, connecting from U.S. Highway 87 on the west to U.S. Highway 277 and U.S. Highway 67 on the east.

The San Angelo Comprehensive Plan, adopted in 2003 and updated in 2009, includes the Master Thoroughfare Plan (MTP) that designates the functional classification of existing transportation facilities in the City of San Angelo, as well as future planned major thoroughfares (freeways, arterials, and collectors). Staff periodically reviews areas and proposes amendments based new information or changing development patterns.


In this case, a new Interstate Highway has been designated for San Angelo and this proposal is to recognize the current concept map for the route along the far north side of the City. This route, shown on the attached maps, will be an east-west connection north of FM 2105, connecting from US Highway 87 on the west to US Highway 277 and US Highway 67 on the east.

The San Angelo City Council meets at 8:30 a.m. Tuesday in the McNease Convention Center.  That meeting is open to the public.
