The department recently issued a report that includes support for the freeway cap as part of several long-term changes for the city.

I read this article and still don't understand what a "freeway cap" is. A dead end?

The Freeway caps I’ve seen have been really wide bridges over sunken interstates. The one in Dallas has been a huge benefit - to developers.

There are about 10 lanes of expressway under this one

A cap is a concrete cover put over a sunken section of freeway to connect areas separated by the freeway. Typically, a park is put on top of the cap.
