Cutting off access to “opportunities?”
There are no less than FOUR bridges that span the full width of the mighty Trinity—I recommend the Dallas-FtWorth Turnpike.
I hear about this “Horseshoe Project”, now underway, that aims to rebuild that, and the rest of the bridges into Downtown...
To be fair a lot of the bridges date to the 1930s and do need replacing. The one on I-30 had huge chunks fall out of it and one poor guy discovered it the hard way with his car - which was fortunately larger than the gaping hole it fell into.
Yes, that’s the excuse the people in Cadillac Heights and surrounding areas use. They don’t want a levee then they scream about how nothing is being done because of their skin color when the area unsurprisingly floods.
