About 10-yrs behind on roads...

After 1 year of living here I noticed that this city is growing VERY FAST. TOLL ROADS is the main issue right now. A TR or two or three would help clear congestion cutting thru the city; but TXDOT wants to convert existing roads into tolls! (the natives are angry about that) Travelling the main vein (I-35) during peak hours is a serious no-no, if at all possible. MOPAC, the western vein has gotten terrible as well. 183, the eastern vein, is also toast. This all happened just since I moved here last year. Pros: The side/access roads are a great option to use. U-turns are EVERYWHERE in case u miss an exit; love that! Cons: TXDOT waited too late to add more parkways and expand main roads; now they are all but forced to build tolls. In that respect, TXDOT sucks.
