RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that (1) the attached resolution approving the removal of
the U.S. Highway 80 designation as requested by the State Department of High-
ways and Transportation be approved; and (2) the attached ordinance designa-
_.ting the name of the same roadway to be "Highway 80 West", extending from the
Camp Bowie Boulevard/Lackland Road intersection westward to the city limit
line, be adopted (see map reflecting the limit of the requested change).
BACKGROUND:
The State Department of Highways and Public Transportation has requested
approval by the City of Fort Worth the removal of the State's official
designation of U. S. Highway 80 within the city limits of Fort Worth. This
stretch of highway within Fort Worth has been known as both the Weatherford
Highway and the Bankhead Highway. Research has revealed that there are over
300 businesses located along the subject street currently using the name
"Highway 80 West" as part of their address; therefore, the State Highway
Department requests that the removal of the designation (U.S. Highway 80) be
allowed, and the City assign the name, "Highway 80 West." This will avoid
problems associated with requiring existing businesses to change their
addresses.
A public hearing has been scheduled for today's City Council meeting, and all
property owners have been notified.
