Why the need to build a full on tollway system when they can just construct overpasses atop the traffic lights on 183E, 290E, and 71E, etc.??? Then when more gas tax money is available over the next decade, add additional lanes. What's causing all the bottlenecks and congestion right now are the traffic lights, not necessarily the amount of lanes. What the hell is wrong with the city "leaders" of Austin anyways?? Let's just toll every single road in the city from now on!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
