About the Project
The Texas Department of Transportation’s I-14 Extension project will extend I-14 from I-35 in Belton to BU 190 in Rogers as an alternative for I-35 traffic. This project has raised concerns among Belton community members regarding loss of easy downtown access from I-35 including more barriers among neighborhoods and the prioritization of through traffic over local connectivity.
The three project segments and their limits include:
- Segment 1: I-35, north of Loop 121 in Belton to Loop 363/US 190/SH 36 in Temple
- Segment 2: Loop 363/US 190/SH 36 (at I-35) in Temple to SH 95
- Segment 3: US 190/SH 36 from SH 95 to BU 190 in Rogers
Expected Impacts
Hundreds of private property owners are expected to experience impacts from the proposed right-of-way needs for the three segments of the I-14 Extension project.
