Locals chosen to Trans-Texas Corridor citizens’ advisory committees

The Texas Transportation Commission today selected members to serve on two citizens’ advisory committees for the Trans-Texas Corridor.

Area residents on the I-35 Corridor Advisory Committee include Karen Marstaller of Waco, Don Greene of Lorena and John Erwin of Hillsboro.

Each committee will advise the Texas Department of Transportation in the planning of two priority corridors. One committee will focus on Interstate 35 corridor and TTC-35, while the other committee will advise the department on the proposed Interstate 69 corridor and I-69/TTC.

The Corridor Advisory Committees represent a cross-section of community and business leaders, land owners, local transportation experts and other interested parties.

Additional committees also will consider specific segments of the larger corridors. Each of those committees may also have up to 24 members, which will be appointed by local entities or groups within the corridor segment.

All advisory committees will report their recommendations to the state transportation department’s executive director, Amadeo Saenz.

Could somebody please change the gobbledegook in the title to an apostrophe? Thanks.

Deport a huge percentage of Texas drives and we won’t have the need for the Corridor.

I’m sure glad those prior public meetings, where the citizens of Texas made it clear they didn’t want any part of this corridor, paid off.

Not just the meetings. A lot of phone calls, emails and letters have been sent to state reps demanding an end to this nonsense.

We are no longer in charge. The days of self-representative governance are gone. We are being jobbed.
