Not sure what areas they are truly considering but I-35 isn’t a race track as it is with all the congestion. Secondly certain counties already have reduced speed limits due to the smog/pollution crap.

Spanish-US venture?
Is Spain really a player in this?

OK, this is insanity. Time to recall the politicians involved in this and if they are recall-proof, oppose them in the next election. It is like shortening the yellow light at camera-monitored intersections. Unacceptable. Unacceptable </Beldar>

The disgusting manipulation of a gullible public by the Texas state government is both outrageous and disgraceful!!!
Lowering speed limits to try to force toll road usage and outright lying by Texas agencies, including Perry himself, should be enough to run Perry, TxDOT AND Cintas-Zachary out of the state!!!
Incidents like this are the reason that increasing numbers of American voters are convinced that our system of government is irretrievably broken. It remains to be seen when “We the people of the United States” end the debacle and take control of our country once again!!

Is Spain really a player in this?Yes. You have the question backwards. The real question is whether there a real US player in this, or just some local companies cut in on the deal.

Yep. A-settin' on a rail, buck nekkid, tarred and feathered, and into Mexico -- one way!
And I'll gladly supply the East Texas Piney Woods pine rail: split, with lots of sharp edges and splinters!

Cintra(of Spain)is financing the construction of the Trans Texas Corridor(NAFTA Super Highway). FYI Cintra has also made campaign contributions to Governor Rick Perry. The law firm that represents Cintra Is Giuliani's law firm(Bracewell and Giuliani). Perry recently endorsed Giuliani.
