Please ping me to what you find. I don't have the time to dig through 1600 pages, but am interested in what you find that you think may be problems.
Glad that they finally released all portions of it. Have you seen if your land would be affected by the likely preferred options? Pretty detailed maps here:

(For those unfamiliar, click on the dots on the map to see detailed schematics of possible routes for a particular segment)
While TXDOT is correct that those are not yet the determined route (legally they can't choose one until the NEPA process (including the hearings) are complete, the detailed maps are likely where it will go, though it certainly can be changed based on a variety of reasons.
I don't have time to dig through 1600 pages, either, but what else can I do to preserve my family's farm? Looks to me like some yahoo in Austin with a magic marker had a good time drawing lines.
Unfortunately, I know what lies under those lines, and what they've got in mind for Cooke County is an abomination. The public hearing there last summer was so packed that they had to schedule a second meeting, and the response was overwhelmingly that this road is not welcome there.
If they want to get all that China junk from western Mexico to Kansas City, how about a big air cargo facility on the Pacific coast of Mexico and a receiving facility in KC? Does anyone seriously want all that stuff trucking through Texas?
I don't want the smog, I don't want the national security implications (road, rail, and utilities all in one convenient corridor, how totally stupid can we be??), and I don't want tons of concrete covering up my land and that of my friends and neighbors.
