samagon Posted May 4, 2017 Share Posted May 4, 2017 So, I'm shocked to see that the Katy freeway, after being rebuilt maybe 10 years ago holds 2 of the top 10 most congested in Texas. Can we look forward to 10 years of construction on 45/288/59/10 through downtown just to buy us 10 years of lower congestion before it's as bad as it is now? http://www.txdot.gov/inside-txdot/projects/100-congested-roadways.html Rank Rank Truck Roadway From To County Annual Hrs of Delay per Mile Annual Hrs of Truck Delay per Mile TCI PTI CSI Annual Congestion Cost (M) Annual Truck Congestion Cost (M) 1 2 IH 610 IH 10 / US 90 US 59 / IH 69 Harris 1,112,917 68,893 2.45 3.89 3.25 $90.63 $20.99 2 1 IH 35 US 290 N SH71 Travis 1,085,136 108,645 2.71 4.73 3.54 $215.22 $72.33 3 3 US 59 IH 610 SH 288 Harris 870,291 51,604 2.12 3.36 2.17 $105.83 $23.64 4 44 Woodall Rodgers Fwy US 75 N Beckley Ave Dallas 748,546 14,976 2.03 3.06 2.31 $21.31 $1.81 5 5 IH 10 / US 90 N Eldridge Pkwy Sam Houston Tollway W Harris 659,959 48,855 1.95 3.33 2.30 $50.23 $13.43 6 9 IH 45 Sam Houston Tollway N IH 610 Harris 656,582 39,713 1.69 2.33 2.01 $135.37 $31.08 7 4 IH 635 IH 35E / US 77 US 75 Dallas 584,661 49,538 1.86 2.58 2.34 $112.58 $33.59 8 14 IH 35E / US 77 SH 183 IH 30 Dallas 555,861 32,302 1.72 2.62 2.14 $67.3 $14.81 9 10 IH 10 / US 90 Sam Houston Tollway W IH 610 Harris 532,133 38,295 1.69 2.80 1.85 $81.1 $21.27 10 12 IH 45 IH10 / US 90 IH 610 Harris 521,555 36,340 1.68 2.25 1.90 $94.71 $24.31 and from 610 to 45 I-10 ranks in the top 15 most congested. Texas, and Houston need to consider a plan to create alternative forms of transit. This is getting ridiculous we can no longer widen our way out of traffic.
