And Texas has the distinction of removing the toll booths when the project is paid for. Reference Interstate 30, the old "Dallas-Fort Worth Turnpike". But for too many, it is all about the hair; and that the TTC will connect to Mexico. So that the overloaded and unsafe Mexican trucks might not tear up I-35 as much. I-45 is just now getting finished up on some of the "new" sections. It has been under construction for 25 years. And the naysayers think we ought to just put in a couple of twisting two-lane blacktops and call it good. The Interstate highway system would never be built in this day and age. Rut-roads and private bridges would be all that is necessary for those that want to hurt the Texas economy.

For me its not so much about the Mexican trucks
(haven't seen one yet) as it is about the waste
of land and unfairness of it. I35 is too narrow
at 4 lanes. It needs to be fixed. TTC will help
contractors and materials suppliers and thats about
it.

BTW the American trucks are plenty dangerous.
Their turn signals don't work and their tires
tend to shred.
