Opponents argue that the corridor would not ease major metropolitan traffic,

What gets me is that these opponents say the TTC won't decrease congestion in cities but will decrease the number of cutomers of businesses along existing Interstates.

The existing Interstate system in Texas was designed for a state with a population less than 8 million. We now have over 21 million. We'll have 40 million by 2040. Just where do the oppononent of TTC propose to increase the capacity of the highway system in Texas without adding new highways?
