Gov. Rick Perry's vision of the Trans-Texas Corridor
Posted Fri, Aug 26, 2005 at 6:56 pm
Texas' Republican Gov. Rick Perry wants to build a massive scar across that state called the "Trans-Texas Corridor". It would consist of roads, railway lines, and energy transport pipelines and, in some places, it would be one-quarter of a mile wide.
Now, Raytheon has been selected to provide the booth-less toll part of the massive project. Don't have a toll pass? You'll get a bill in the mail after your license plate has been scanned. BTW: "FM" means "farm road". Just for your future reference should you find yourself in the area.
Previously: "Dueling over a scar". Some call the TTC a "NAFTA Road".

Hey, that's swell, with highways, railroads, and pipelines all going down a narrow corridor, then Al-Qaeda just has one target to hit!
