Abstract
This report shows the result of an analysis of land value, land use, business activity, and other data collected for a restudy of the Austin study area in a further effort to isolate and measure some of the economic effects that construction of Interstate Highway 35 has had on this area. This study is in a rural-urban fringe area where the new highway (IH 35) has been located in a new area paralleling old U. S. Highway 81 to the west by about a half mile. Generally speaking, the study area is about four miles from the central business district.|The study of four additional years (1958-61) of changes in the original study and control areas has augmented some of the conclusions drawn in the previous report which covered the period 1941-57.
