Never seen 6 lanes across, except for the New Jersey Turnpike where the road is divided into two parallel 3-lane segments.

Hmmm .. 6 lanes accross is pretty normal out here in Southern California, and that's just going in one direction! ;-) Not counting the other 5-6 lanes going the other way!

I just wish these northeastern carpetbagging democrats would get the heck out of Texas!

They are ruining the State with their:

Toll roads
Seat belt laws
Car seat laws
No passengers in the bed of pickups laws
Watershed laws
Toilet laws
Hunting and Fishing laws

When I was a kid you could drive anywhere for free in Texas (quickly) while crawling around in the back of a pickup truck or stationwagon. You could drink clean fresh water from a well you had on your own property, and could hunt or fish for free year round without a stinkin licence, not to mention that Toilets actually WORKED back then!

What the hell is going on !!!! I feel like i'm living in communist Russia!

I want my state back! And I want all these pinko communist liberals to go back to wherever the hell they came from !

They are pulling the same scam in Indiana. There is a big gap where I-69 needs to be extended. They are going to do a collossal land grab. But the good news is it will make it easier and more profitable to move all of our jobs to Mexico where there are no pollution laws and people work for a dollar a day. NAFTA is a joke.

The northern section of the NJ Turnpike (from about New Brunswick through the Meadowlands) is a total of 14 lanes wide, seven northbound and seven southbound. It is a dual-dual layout, with cars segregated from bus and truck traffic. There are no crossovers, only bridges and ramps for each dual-dual section. Those can make quite a tangle when encountering toll plazas and service areas.

"in fact, the reality of this road project is probably that the state expects a massive population boom from immigration. that's what this is likely all about."

It will make it easier to match those "willing worker" to those "jobs that Americans won't do". It will also make it easier to get to the welfare office.

I-35 is a nightmare! One of the most poorly maintained interstates in the US.
