The project, which would stretch from Executive Center to Copia Street, spans nearly six miles and is part of a larger I-10 corridor study by the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT). Greg Davis, President of McCall Center and representative of the Eastside-Central Coalition, said a group of El Pasoans is opposing the project. "The El Paso Neighborhoods Coalition... commissioned a transportation consultant to analyze and report the proposal of the ITIN expansion. The study, named stopping the ITIN widening and finding a better path to the future for El Paso," David said.

"I've heard from a lot of very concerned business owners and that's all, not to mention that TXDOT will actually directly take some businesses north of I-10 to expand the footprint of the current highway location," said Canales. According to TxDOT's draft environmental study, the project could affect four multi-family buildings and 11 non-residential buildings. Read the study below: Click here to view the PDF file.

Josiah Heyman, a professor from the University of Texas at El Paso, expressed concerns about the impact on nearby neighborhoods. "There's a lot of areas that are near I-10 that are gonna be impacted by this construction. And I worry about whether they'll recover," said Heyman.
