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.

Consistent group aren't they?.....


Yes, as a fact, they are consistent -- and correct!

The TTC will be extremely limited access. That means that:

1. Virtually all access points will be sited for connection to urban areas -- thereby dumping the load of high-speed corridor traffic into the cities -- increasing urban traffic congestion.

2. That same limited access will divert traffic from rural interstates to the TTC -- and keep it confined on the TTC across rural Texas (where all corridor services will be confined to the TTC ROW). That means reduced off-corridor business and total devastation to communities that depend on out-of-state tourism.

If you can't get off the da*ned thing, you sure ain't gonna leave any money behind in rural Texas.

What is inconsistent about that?

Come on TXnMA, can't you please be a team player.

Don't you see that it's a done deal. That the governor is only doing this to make our lives better.

We can certainly trust him - after all he is a politician - and who could be more honest and trustworthy than a politician?

Now please, be a team player.
