First off the TTT has nothing to do with easing congestion for I 35 it's being built for nafta reasons.

there are plans in the works to build a smart terminal in Kansas City to recieve and re route overseas containers from mexico into the US bypassing our longshoremen and security measures taking both jobs and safety out of our hands

on top of that we(you in Texas) won't even have control of the road once its done as did Indiana, Texas is gonna give Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transport, S.A., something like a 75 year lease to operate and conncession the toll road.

HELLO! if they're getting the profits shouldn't they build it? not to mention um eminant domain! hundreds if not thousands are gonna get hosed before a single car drives it...

then you add in the rail lines to bring in Chinese products through Mexico to KC then it can be put on Canadian trucks and onto another Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transport, S.A., managed road through Evansville Ind. and off to Canada the governor of Ind has already said that he's going to squander the 4 billion he got from, you got it, Cintra Concesiones de Infraestructuras de Transport, S.A for the Indiana toll road, that we paid for to finish I 59 from Evansville to Indy and on into Windsor Ont.

but hey maybe they'll pay each other in Ameros and we can just sit home and collect Hilleryfare

US truckers use it? a few will, the rest of us? ya better start widening yer county roads, cuz they're gonna get busy...

I think the whole thing is a joke, a very bad one, but still a joke.
