  1. I’m also glad you don’t live in austin. Time for the rest of you to leave until it’s too late and homeless socialism swallows your home and family!
  2. Honeywagons aren't cheap.
  3. good lord. Can we move this thread to the 6th Street Journal? The amount of old white man anger in the DT is just too much. Why the fuck are you trying to make a culture war fight in a thread about transportation projects?
  4. Again, Prop B didn't address homeless along trails because that was always not allowed. Cronk didn't enforce the ban because of Corona. Council never legalized camping on trails and parks. People love to shit on her here but most of them agree with her policies on the homeless, transit and housing. It's really funny.
  5. How is the rest of council doing something different? They voted to certify the election results as was their duty. kelly is stil a disaster to the rest of the city. Her policies just make her a hero to the DT because of the posters that hang out here.
  6. Wouldn't that take someone suing the city over the ordinance?
  7. Maybe Portland or Nashville?
  8. Were would a Vegas baseball stadium go? Near downtown? It doesn't seem like you need to get it strip adjacent.
  9. Fuck you. Put it in West Austin. Fucking old white people never learn that dumping their problems in East Austin and forgetting about them is not a solution that is going to fly anymore.
  10. Camping along the hike/bike trail was never legal. Cronk opted to not enforce it due to CDC pandemic guidelines. Are we going to see the list of "temporary" mass camp sites? They better not all be on the east side.

    Are you kidding? The 1st event is going to be a disaster. They are going to have problems with traffic, food etc which is only natural. They'll learn important lessons and help make the Austin FC debut better.
  12. Good. People are going to be really really shocked with how improved the new design is. It really goes back again to making highways smarter which Txdot has been doing in the last few years. They have been building those very expensive but very useful braided entrances and exits. The new 183 ramp has 3 key improvements. More Gradual Slope, It has a dedicated lane that leads to it instead of a sharp nascar swerve exit and traffic entering from the frontage (cars coming from 290) will now pass under it instead of before it so entering cars aren't going through people trying to take the ramp. Promote smarter highways, not wider ones.

  14. No. I have the internet.
  15. They are working on the engineering. I've only seen it discussed in slides in the CTRMA board meetings online. It's still really early.
  16. Sam's brother is dead. Sounds like suicide or a terrible accident.
  17. CTRMA is moving ahead on extending the 290 Expressway to Elgin.
  18. Would it be really dumb to buy Ford? It's cheap and they seemed prime to make a big splash with EV in the next 5-10.
  19. Huh, seems longer than that but you're right. I take it back.
  20. I believe at least some of those were part of a shit ton of projects that were delayed indefinitely by CAMPO to fund 35 reconstruction with managed lanes instead of toll lanes.
  21. There are lots of trucks on 130.
  22. 45SW is the shortest toll over? LOL. Not remotely true and it's only a dollar. Try counting the tolling booths along the new 183.
  23. Brat is right. You may not like 130 and that's fine but it still serves a big community and will help bring desperately needed development to this part of town as development pops up around it. Also, anyone who says trucks don't take 130 don't ever drive on 130. You could ban trucks from 35 but you would have a lot of empathy HEBs, Targets, CVSes and just about every other commercial building considering they all require trucks to service loading docks.
