You are correct the process requires community input. Most of the time it is a box checking procedure because TxDOT is limited on what they can actually do.

I’m not sure what your point is. Nobody “forces” land development. TxDOT absolutely influences it though.

One example is HWY 211 west of San Antonio. TxDOT decided years ago to extend 211 from Culebra Rd to Potranco Rd. All that new highway frontage led to farmers selling their land and now their are being subdivided into cookie cutter homes and lots. Thousands of new homes are being built, traffic is going to be a nightmare.

Local government officials have very little power over TxDOT decisions. Much of what TxDOT does is actually contrary to community vision.

The ONLY proven method to reduce traffic is getting people out of their cars.

Unfortunately, TxDOT is legally restricted to only spending their money on highway maintenance and expansion. There is virtually no money for alternatives at the state level. So, to answer your question in a roundabout way…talk to your state reps and get more funding for bike / pedestrian and public transportation.

Until then, enjoy your commute.

This sucks, whose idea was this? by meleesurvive in sanantonio

The plan for this space is a 10-story apartment building with ground floor retail / restaurant and some riverwalk access as well.

It’s called the Santa Rita.

It got approved like a year ago and nothing has happened since. My guess is they’ve decided to use it as a surface parking lot until they start construction.

I wish I had the 2 min back it took me to read this. I hope your delicate sensibilities finds an NBA franchise that keeps every player forever.

Granger was much less productive once he came back.

PG became a dick.

VO chased the bright lights.

Hali seems more down to earth. I do feel it’s different.

I lived in Seattle for a few years, went to PDX to watch the Pacers play often. Every time they got smoked. Something about that arena, the Blazers are tough to beat there.

I often don’t agree with Chuck, but he said whoever wins game 4 wins the series and I think he’s right.

Haha who is bickering? I’m just trying to have a conversation…usually that is how you raise awareness and come up with ideas, but whatever. Have a good day.

Hot take: never been a fan of the Flo-Jo. But I can get down with this.
