2-8-65 G-761 Delivery Route Revisions l ,i 1
Because of continuing extensions of the City and State highway and thorough-
fare system, it is necessary to make additions, revisions and re-designations
in Chapter 26, Article IV of the City Code which establishes truck routes and
commercial delivery routes within the City. Copies of the proposed ordinance
and map showing the existing route designations are attached to this
communication.
The following is a lilt of the proposed amendments, as reviewed and approved
by the Traffic Engineering, Public Works and City Planning Departments:
1) Truck Routes
a) Re-designations and Extensions
Interstate Highway 20 - Within City Limits
Interstate Highway 820 - Within City Limits
Poly Freeway (State Highway 287) - Within City Limits
Northeast Freeway (State Highway 121) - Within City Limits
Fort Worth-Dallas Turnpike - Within City Limits
b) Addition
Spur 303 - Interstate Highway 820 to City Limits
2) Commercial Delivery Routes
a) Extension
East Berry Street - Village Creek Road to the Southeast Loop
(Interstate Highway 820)
b) Addition
Spur 280 - North Freeway (Interstate Highway 35-W)
to Jones Street
Interstate highwayip, freewayg, and the Toll Road have been re-designated without
specific limits in order that the roadways will become truck routes as soon
as the facilities are open to public use. This will reduce the frequency
that the Code must be amended to keep pace with highway construction. A
section of Spur 303 has been added as a truck route to permit a direct con-
nection with Loop 820 and eliminate the existing requirement that trucks turn
onto Lancaster to reach the loop.
City Council action amending the truck and commercial delivery route provisions
of the City Code is recommended.
