Analysis
SUMMARY:
AMENDING MASTER TRANSPORTATION PLAN AND THE THOROUGHFARE MAP TO DELETE THE EAST-WEST COLLECTOR ROADWAY BETWEEN S. GREAT SOUTHWEST PARKWAY AND FALL DRIVE.
BACKGROUND:
The proposed expansion of the ‘Fresh Express’ industrial development immediately south of subject collector prompted this request. Fresh Express is located north of W.
