“Tell me which factor does I-69 fall down on?”

Personally, I don’t care about I69, I’ll never use it and unlike TTC35, don’t know anyone who will be effected. (might even be a viable alternative to TTC35) (the Feds have decided I10 and I69 are top priority for now)

I just came back from traveling through 8 southern states, all interstate highways. I came to the conclusion Texas has been screwing us. Setting us up for all these toll roads and such. There are sections between Waco and Dallas that have been under construction for over 30 yrs. This state has turned into Louisiana, corruption deluxe. I wouldn't trust Rick Perry and his cohorts to wipe my butt.

YES, IT MIGHT BE. I think your comment makes my point, which is: Let us judge the road proposals as they are and not fold them up into a Vast RoadRing Conspiracy. TTC/Cintra is bad, but I69 may be fine.

“I came to the conclusion Texas has been screwing us. Setting us up for all these toll roads and such.”

I agree. We dont need these roads to be toll roads. If we really need them for the sake of international trade, for goodness sakes get the Federal govt to chip in and make it a proper interstate highway.
