The Thoroughfare Development Plan (TDP) is a long-range plan that identifies the location and type of roadway facilities that are needed to meet projected long-term growth within the City of Arlington. The TDP serves as a tool to enable the City to preserve future corridors for transportation system development as the need arises. It also forms the basis for Arlington’s roadway capital improvement program, roadway impact fees, and developer requirements. The TDP includes detailed information related to roadway classification, right-of-way requirements, design criteria, and number of through travel lanes for each thoroughfare within the City.
Turner Warnell is included as a major arterial on the City's TDP and was selected by the Citizens Bond Committee for inclusion on the 2014 Bond Election. Arlington voters approved funding for this project as part of the $160M street improvements package.
This project aligns with the City Council's priorities to Enhance Regional Mobility and Champion Great Neighborhoods.
