I just think is funny that they claim that is cheaper to build some crazy "light overpass toll bridge" than just build an overpass.

Now that I think about it.... it will be the same @$#% as building an overpass but backwards.
The bridge will be where the exit ramps go and the exit ramp will be the highway.

Here's an idea...
how about just using tax dollars to build that #$% right from the start, so we don't have to spend millions of dollars fixing it later.

There's a place in San Antonio that is similar to what they want.
Is located on the NW corner of the North Star Mall and it overpasses San Pedro Ave on the outer roads.
But it's not toll.
