BIKE: Envision Central Texas is being killed by CTRMA scam

[Andrew Wimsatt]

In TxDOT's Fort Worth District, 8.5% of this fiscal year's letting 
amount (or approximately $17 million) is being used for bikeway 
construction, sidewalks, park and ride facility construction, and 
pedestrian access improvements.  Of the $17 million. $9.5 million is 
being funded under Category 9 (Transportation Enhancements).

I also found the following quote from Mike Clark-Madison in last week's 
Chronicle interesting:

"As Dallas and Fort Worth have now demonstrated to all but the 
willfully obtuse, density and transit-oriented development, supported 
by both roads (including toll roads) and rail, can and do work in the 
suburbs."
