Motorists traveling on Interstate 35 from northeast San Antonio to Schertz could have the option of using toll lanes in the future as part of a proposed expansion of the highway.

The Texas Department of Transportation proposed Monday constructing elevated toll lanes along a 15-mile stretch of I-35 from Loop 410 to FM 1103 in Schertz.

As part of TxDOT's suggested plan, two elevated lanes would be built in each direction from Loop 410 to FM 1103, with access to the elevated lanes at three points along I-35: at 410 west, 410 south, and Loop 1604.

Details of the proposed project, which is part of TxDOT's 25-year plan to address capacity needs on I-35, were revealed during a public meeting and open house at the Schertz Civic Center.
The purpose of the meeting, which included exhibits and a DVD presentation on the proposed expansion of I-35, was to gather public feedback on TxDOT's plans, officials said.
