For once, it would be nice if the Texas Legislature, Rick Perry and TXDOT itself would really LISTEN and take into account the citizens' concerns when making their decisions re: road and highway planning.

The citizens may be small, but we are who really matters!!

Virtually every business in that community closed or was negatively impacted to some extent, many of them years ago. Many homes and churches were affected as well. We don't need a freeway to Dripping Springs and certainly don't want to pay for one. How about just finishing that continuos left turn lane project - that's a practical answer that is already making a difference in the areas where it has been completed.

At CAMPO’s February 14, 2005 meeting, Mr. Bob Daign of TxDoT projected a $100M price-tag for a tolling infrastructure that reveals a $270M cost over the 39 year projection. For the same $270M, CAMPO could fix all of the traffic issues in Oak Hill, reduce the impact on businesses and the environment as well as protect our homes from the ten-fold increase in road noise emissions from elevated roads.
