4.4.2. Central Area’s Growth The Central Area, depicted in Figure 4.4 , is foundational to Fort Worth’s identity and success, bringing together a confluence of the City’s major transportation and infrastructure assets, institutional and commercial opportunities, and recreational destinations. As the Greater Fort Worth Area continues to grow, traffic will increase on the City’s roadway network, intensifying the congestion and overall demand on the city’s infrastructure. The projected level of growth will significantly impact Fort Worth’s core and connection to key employment clusters and destinations that serve both residents and visitors, such as the Downtown, Stockyards, Near Southside, Alliance, and Trinity Trails network and parks system.
