        I e moved out of Houston but if i recall correctly they also removed the rail line that was adjacent to this highway for the expansion.

        There was a killer hamburger place off like Gessner that i still miss.

          Is Houston aware that some cities pay hundreds of millions of dollars to install a rail line to address this exact problem?
