They want to make 290 into a full freeway from Houston to Austin. They also want to make a full freeway from Houston to College Station. The billion dollar question(pun intended) is what money? Isn't this state already going broke with all these road projects? Upgrading US59, Upgrading US277, upgrading US281, upgrading US290, upgrading SH249, building the grand parkway, thats not even touching DFW area. So where is this money coming from? Is it growing on trees? And if so, where is this tree? I might need to make a visit.
