摘要: To answer questions being raised by abutting residents and businesses about proposed elevated and/or depressed freeway improvements in the urban and suburban areas of Texas, a four-year study has been conducted to estimate the social, economic, and environmental effects of such freeway designs. Eight existing, two under construction, and one approved-for construction freeway sections have been studied on a before-, during-, and after-construction basis. The sections selected for study range from being in predominately residential suburban areas to predominately commercial-industrial downtown areas. This report presents the findings of the social and economic effects of elevated, depressed, and at-grade level freeways. The findings from prior studies indicate that freeway grade level differences in selected measures of social and economic activity are statistically significant.
