I am happy for Texas residents if this is truly kaput.

I guess the loons will have to be happy with the Build-A-Burgers.

Good! Hell, they can't even get a simple rail system working in Austin, how the hell do they think they can build a massive transportation system that will take 50 years?
Let the bitch die!

Up here in DFW you can’t move without using a toll road. The NTTA is everywhere, and many place that you don’t know until the bills roll in...

I still think the bullet trains were a great idea. I guess it’s nothing but Southwest cattle calls and endless traffic jams on I-35 for Texas from now on.
What a pity.

Getting it to work is beside the point. Its a massive govt funded project which will have tons of graft. How will they afford their retirement plans if they cant steal our tax money?

Let it stay dead. Add a couple of lanes to I-35 instead

Public transportation works well with high density populations. Other places it just soaks up tax dollars.

The Texas corridor is dead along with the bubble economy that spawned it. Plus who in their right mind wants more direct access to and from Mexico, the bottomless pit of corruption, narcotraficantes and illegal aliens

You guys need to pull the plug on any politician that won’t get rid of those toll roads. And then demand them gone.
You already pay gas taxes for highway upkeep. Tell your leaders that’s what you want the money spent on, rather than mass transit rabbit holes.
If mass transit is a good idea, then taxes on tickets to ride should pay to support the system. If they can’t raise money in this manner, then the mass transit isn’t viable. Do away with it. Better yet, don’t build it in the first place.

Thank you very much for your diligent efforts to keep us updated and to keep the issue alive -- until we finally killed it!
