Common Sense Might be Alive in Texas

Filed Under (Trucking, Trucking - Industry)

The Texas State Government finally comes to its senses.

Senate OKs temporary toll ban
The Texas Senate unanimously approved a bill Thursday, April 19, that
is intended to buy the state more time to review the effects of handing
over roadways to private groups. It now heads to the House.

Perry has condemned the moratorium concept because of concerns about
congestion and the complications it could create for attracting
business. The governor has championed public-private partnerships to
build toll roads since 2003 when his support was instrumental to
passage of a bill to finance the proposed Trans-Texas Corridor for
nearly $180 billion.

Governor Perry is clearly in the pocket of the Spanish consortium that wants to building the NAFTA Super Corridor.
