To spur revitalization in the Trinity River Corridor, the City of Dallas is collaborating with state and federal agencies to construct the Trinity River Corridor Project, a public works program involving the construction of new transportation, flood control and park facilities. The Trinity River Corridor Comprehensive Land Use Plan, which adopted by Dallas City Council in March 2005, serves as a framework for a coordinated approach to the Trinity Project infrastructure improvements, land use and economic development.
The geographical area addressed by the Trinity River Corridor Comprehensive Land Use Plan is approximately 44,000 acres in size – about 20% of the land area in Dallas. The boundaries of the corridor span from Royal Lane in the north to I-20 in southern Dallas, and approximately 1.5 miles on either side of the Trinity River.
The plan will be used to guide development and investment decisions in the Trinity River Corridor. Its broad vision describes the character this corridor should have for the future. It establishes general principles that direct preparation of detailed plans for smaller parts of the corridor. It provides guidance about the appropriate land uses and development patterns for the corridor that can be used by citizens, property owners, and City officials as they review specific development proposals.
The Trinity River Comprehensive Land Use Plan includes the following sections:
