The Parkway would create a direct route from I-35 to I-10. ==== Cibolo Parkway (Proposed) ==== In 2006, the City of Cibolo incorporated mobility needs into the Cibolo Future Land Use Map, Future Thoroughfare Plan, and Capital Improvement Plan.<ref name=":5">{{Cite web|url=http://www.cibolotx.gov/index.aspx?NID=464|title=Cibolo, TX - Official Website - Proposed Cibolo Parkway Project|website=www.cibolotx.gov|language=en|access-date=2018-04-05}}</ref> In 2007, the [[Texas Department of Transportation]] (TxDOT) completed a study for a possible FM 1103 extension in Cibolo south to I-10. However, TxDOT determined that right-of-way acquisition issues and funding precluded such an extension for the near future.<ref name=":5" /><ref name="mailbag">{{Cite web|url=http://txdotsanantonio.blogspot.com/2017/07/mail-bag-is-txdot-involved-with-cibolo.html |title=Go Ahead!: Mail bag: Is TxDOT involved with the Cibolo Parkway project? | publisher=Texas Department of Transportation|date=26 July 2017|website=Go Ahead!|access-date=2018-04-05}}</ref> The biggest hurdles included crossing floodplains and an overpass over both FM78 and the [[Union Pacific Railroad]]. In 2015, with explosive development in the FM 1103 area continuing, the Cibolo City Council stated they wanted to investigate options to build the extension and it formed a blue-ribbon committee of citizens to study the matter. In 2016, the committee recommended a private-public partnership to develop the road as a tollway. In 2017, the Cibolo City Council approved an agreement with the Texas Turnpike Corporation (TTC) to move forward with the project. As of early 2018, the TTC is still conducting its feasibility study for the road to see if it is a viable project for them. In the agreement, the City of Cibolo would own the road, while TTC would finance the design, construction, maintenance, and operation of the estimated $125 million and roughly 11-mile roadway. In exchange, TTC would collect tolls from roadway users for 50 years.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.cibolotx.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1360|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180406101810/http://www.cibolotx.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1360|url-status=dead|archive-date=2018-04-06|title=DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT BETWEEN CITY OF CIBOLO AND CIBOLO TURNPIKE, LP|website=City of Cibolo}}</ref> At one point TTC projected the toll rate to be $0.20 a mile, with exemption for city-owned vehicles.
