The Katy Freeway expansion, which is well underway, will include toll lanes, HOV lanes, as well as additional free lanes.

That's reconciled.

Technicall - yes, I stand corrected.

I do think that if you asked 100 people what Williamson meant when he said that all highways will have tolls, 99 of them would have assumed tolls ONLY, not the option of "free" lanes.

By the way, the California project (SH 91), that is the basis for the Katy project, now costs $0.70 per mile during peak drive times, not to mention the other nightmares associated with it.

On last comment: Note that the Katy project does not, as of yet, involve of sellout of the corridor to a private company. That is a big difference.
