They offer 4 flights/day to the Dallas-Fort Worth Airport. Mathis Field Terminal Highways San Angelo is served by three U.S. Highways: 67, 87, 277 . Located between Interstate Highways 10 and 20, San Angelo is 1 hour and 1 ½ respectively from each. Current highway improvement projects are underway to connect the Interstate Highways with 4-lane access. U.S Highway 277 is San Angelo’s closest connection to Mexico – a distance of 155 miles to the border crossing at Del Rio and Ciudad Acuña, Coahuila. The highway traffic in west central Texas is light, and the four lane divided highways and two lane highways with full shoulders provide easy and safe travel. Ports-to-Plains The Ports-to-Plains Trade Corridor is a planned, multimodal transportation corridor including a multi-lane divided highway that will facilitate the efficient transportation of goods and services from Mexico, through West Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, and Oklahoma, and ultimately on into Canada and the Pacific Northwest. 4 Together, the communities along the Ports-to-Plains Trade Corridor are becoming the Gateway to trade throughout the nation and with Mexico and Canada. The Ports-to-Plains Trade Corridor will provide a vast number of benefits for communities along the corridor. The Trade Corridor will allow for the development of less congested ports of entry along the Texas/Mexico border. In addition, it will provide alternatives to other congested corridors that run through major metropolitan areas. In doing so, the trade between Mexico, Canada, and the United States will continue to dramatically increase and all three nations will continue to see a rise in their regional mobility and economic status. http://www.portstoplains.com Railroad San Angelo is home to the corporate office of Texas Pacifico Transportation, Ltd., the operator of the 390 mile short line railroad that connects to the major railroads at its east end (including the BNSF, and the KCS and UP by way of the FWWR), interchanges with the UP at Alpine, and connects to the Mexican railroad network at its west end at Presidio, Texas/Oji-naga, Chihuahua. The railroad currently serves customers in the communities of Ballinger, Miles, Harriet, San Angelo, Mertzon, Barnhart, Big Lake, Rankin, McCamey, Sulphur Junction and Fort Stockton. Main commodities moving on the TXPF include Frac sand, crude oil, grain and 5 steel.

    Developing Bikeways on Angelo State University Campus and Connections to the City by Christopher Bartlett Knappe, B.S. A Thesis In Landscape Architecture Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Texas Tech University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF LANDSCAPE ARCHITECTURE Approved Dr. Alon Kvashny Chair of Committee Charles Klein E’lisa Smetana Peggy Gordon Miller Dean of the Graduate School May, 2011 Copyright 2011, Christopher Knappe Texas Tech University, Christopher Bartlett Knappe, May 2011 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The past three months have been a real challenge, but through a lot of hard work and perseverance, I am thankful to be closing the door on this chapter of my life. I would not have been able to complete this journey without the guidance and patience of several people. I would like start by thanking Dr. Alon Kvashny. He took Tara, Chris, and I under his wing when we first started graduate school, and I am grateful for his friendship, teaching ability, and the laughs we have shared. Thank you also for helping me climb this mountain of a task called a thesis. I am also very grateful to have known Professor Klein the last three years. Whether it was touring around the Yucatan Peninsula, and watching me climb everything in sight, or letting me barge into his office when his door was open to help me figure out which way was up. Thank you, Professor Klein for all of your guidance and assistance throughout my graduate career at Texas Tech. Special thanks go out to E’lisa Smetana and her staff at the San Angelo Metropolitan Planning Organization.
