A little bit of Capitalism interjected into the picture might help Austin's 'weird' liberals. ('Keep Austin Weird' is a common bumper sticker in the town.) If people actually used the existing toll roads around Austin, the problem might be significantly improved. The toll road toward San Antonio is so lightly used that the Wizards of Austin recently raised the speed limit to 85 to encourage use.

How about cutting the toll!!!

The toll prices are so high, few use the toll roads. When real capitalists can't sell their products, they CUT THE PRICE. I suspect that if the toll prices were made more reasonable, usage would increase, revenue would actually INCREASE, and the I-35 congestion would go down.

The P3 toll road from Mustang to Seguin has always been 85mph.

No kidding!
The few times I've been on the Austin bypass, it was almost deserted!
While I love being able to set my cruise control on 100, something still seems wrong.

Imagine what it would do to free up Austin's congestion if more folks took the bypass?

And it's a T-shirt, AND it's a mindset...
