I hope you have a good visit with your parents. Long overdue.
Steve, you are correct about the double decking of Interstate 35. That is part of the I-35 Northeast Expansion (NEX). More information about that subject can be found at the following link: http://www.texashighwayman.com/i35nex.shtml. No doubt that is much needed due to the growth that is taking place in the greater San Antonio metropolitan area. I do not know whether or not large trucks will be permitted on those express lanes.
Happy birthday Steve. Say hi to “TK” : )
Happy Birthday, Steve.
