Most sustainable TxDot project
This $13b Houston highway expansion—equivalent to 3 yrs of all fed funding for transit expansion—will destroy >1000 homes, including 483 low-income units, plus 5 places of worship, 2 schools & hundreds of businesses.
Plus! It will worsen pollution & reduce local tax revenue.

Texas is growing and urbanizing, making new demands for efficient modes of travel between homes, shops, workplaces, and more. We need to act like it.
All Texans deserve safe streets and robust transit options. Better TxDOT spending that prioritizes maintenance — not expansion — of roads would help.

I think you made a bigger mess for someone else to clean up, dude.
![Ted Cruz: Some deranged bastard put this graffiti on the 59 freeway in Houston.
TXDOT has been notified & I'm sure sure they will remove it expeditiously.
But, in the meantime, Texans don't have to look at this hateful garbage anymore.
Graffiti that reads:
FucK
CHARLIE
Kirk

If you cross the border into Texas from Louisiana and drive at 80mph for 10 hours, you’re still in Texas.
Honestly, I think TXDOT put up this mileage sign just to troll people.

All hail the mighty state; Texans, you can defeat TXDOT.
Listened to this podcast on the drive in today; loved it.
1) getting TXDOT to consider taking out a freeway in Dallas was surreal;
2) I’ll always be a sucker for a Rochester story

It's hilarious to see the Trump administration ooh and ahh over Houston's 26-lane Katy Freeway.
TxDOT spent $2.8 billion widening the highway in 2011, and afterward traffic got *worse*. (Source: www.nytimes.com/2023/01/06/u...)
Great job, guys.

TxDOT displaced 160 homes, 433 apartments, 486 public housing units, 5 churches, and 344 businesses in Downtown Houston, costing up to $310M in annual tax revenue, for a $1.1 BILLION-per-mile highway expansion. But somehow, the U.S. “can’t afford” trains?

This passive-voice verbiage seemed so weird until it dawned on me that TXDOT is going out of its way not to say something like “WATCH FOR ICE.”
