  • Proposed Project – I-35 Improvements
    I‐35 ROADWAY Proposed Project – I‐35 Improvements Existing Facility The majority of existing I‐35 between the Williamson/Bell County Line and Hillsboro is four lanes, with six‐lane sections in Waco, Temple, and the southern part of Bell County. Project Purpose The purpose of the proposed project is to increase capacity and improve mobility on I‐35. Project Proposed by Corridor Segment 2 Committee The I‐35 Corridor Segment 2 Committee is considering improvements to I‐35, which would involve widening I‐35 to eight lanes from Hillsboro to the Williamso n/Bell County Line for a distance of approximately 93 miles. Conceptual Project Cost Estimate According to the TxDOT Waco District Improvement Plan, the cost for expanding I‐35 to six lanes through this area is estimated at approximately $1.5 billion. The six‐lane expansion of I‐35 is currently underway. The estimated cost for expanding I‐35 from six to eight lanes is between $2.25 billion and $3.25 billion, including design and construction. This cost, in 2010 dollars, does not include the purchase of right of way. The estimated project costs could increase due to right of way purchases and potential impacts to properties. I‐35 Corridor Segment 2 Committee www.MY35.org September 2010 I‐35 ROADWAY Proposed Project – I‐35E from I‐20 to Hillsboro Existing Facility The existing I‐35E facility is four lanes from Hillsboro to approximately ten miles south of I‐20, where it transitions to six and then eight lanes. Project Purpose The purpose of the proposed project is to increase capacity and improve overall mobility on I‐35E.

In response, the I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee was created by the Texas Transportation Commission, bringing together a group of independent Texas citizens interested in the future of the corridor. These indi- viduals, representing their regions, provide TxDOT with a citizen’s view of how the corridor should be developed. After a period of intense collaboration, the I-35 Corridor Advisory Commit- tee issued the Citizens’ Report on the Current and Future Needs of the I-35 Corridor in November 2008. Their report concluded that the existing capacity on I-35 was insufficient to meet future mobility demands, that additional capacity would be needed within the corridor, and that more community involvement was needed in planning the I-35 corridor. The Texas Transportation Commission agreed it was time for even more public input into the planning process, and called for a citizen- directed effort starting at the local level.

  • The Challenges and Opportunities of Advancing Equity Through Education Policy: a Research Overview
    The Challenges and Opportunities of Advancing Equity through Education Policy: A Research Overview Laura E. Hernández Learning Policy Institute August 2020 A white paper written for the Spencer Foundation. Advancing Equity Through Education Policy 1 Executive Summary Shifting sociopolitical and policy With these changes underway, this research synthesis takes stock of education policy research over the last 15 dynamics have put a spotlight on years, elucidating how scholars have investigated reforms systemic inequities and the need for intended to redress inequity and what directions the school systems to implement policies field may undertake to inform equitable schooling and policymaking. Specifically, it answers: How have scholars that can make inroads into equity’s examined the intersection of policy and equity in K-12 advancement. schooling?; and 2) How have scholars examined power and oppression in policy development and implementation? This analysis revealed that researchers investigating policy and equity have primarily examined the impact and evolution of familiar (e.g., finance, accountability) and emerging policies (e.g., discipline reform) that seek to address inequities. In addition, scholars have shed light on the impact of universal and targeted policies on student subgroups and investigated policy processes to examine reform’s equitable and democratic character. While research has provided important insights, this review points to areas for further inquiry, including the evolution of prominent policies, intersectional analyses, greater attention to specific student subgroups (e.g., Indigenous students, undocumented youth), and attention to the sociopolitical dimensions of change circumscribing educational justice movements. This synthesis also suggests bolder paths forward for the field. It elevates the need for scholarship that examines how multiple policies affect young people and their communities to consider how education can work within policy ecosystems to support healthy development and success.

Abstract A policy of building frontage roads alongside freeway mainlanes avoids the purchase of access rights when upgrading existing highways to freeway standards, and generally supplements local street networks. It also may affect corridor operations, land values, and development patterns. This paper seeks to provide a comprehensive evaluation of frontage road design policies by summarizing research results related to legal statutes affecting public access to roadways, discussing access policies and practices across the states, comparing land development and operations of corridors with and without frontage roads, summarizing studies on access-right valuation, and evaluating construction cost distinctions.
