Residents of Denton, get ready to have your say about the city's infrastructure future. As noted by the City of Denton, a public hearing is scheduled for June 11 to discuss potential amendments to the 2022 Mobility Plan. During the hearing, officials will consider changes to the functional classifications of several local streets, including segments of Eagle Drive, Welch Street, and Avenue A.

The streets being evaluated are situated strategically near the University of North Texas, an area known for its bustle and academia-induced traffic. The city aims to reclassify Eagle Drive from North Texas Boulevard to South Carroll Boulevard, Welch Street from Eagle Drive to West Oak Street, and Avenue A from Highway I-35E to Eagle Drive. Changes would transition these roads from Secondary Arterial to Collector status. To fully grasp the implications of these modifications, citizens can attend the meeting in person to directly express their support or concerns, or to closely observe the proceedings.

As reported by the City of Denton's official notification, the Planning & Zoning Commission will host the public hearing at the City Hall Council Chambers, located at 215 E McKinney Street. The discussion, which is slated to start at 6:30 p.m., will provide a platform for public engagement on the future of Denton's thoroughfares.

The City of Denton encourages community members interested in developing these infrastructure changes to mark June 11 on their calendars. For those seeking to partake, further details and materials related to the hearing will be available on the city's website on June 6. In the meantime, inquiries can be addressed to Sahar Esfandyari at (940) 349-8217 or through email at [email protected].
