    Houston Landing published an article about the project today https://houstonlanding.org/deja-vu-txdot-plan-to-expand-interstate-10-could-divide-a-houston-neighborhood-again/

    Dolcefino said some things about this project. Of course with him, it's hard to say how much is sensationalist and how much isn't. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/HyLmPxaFkTmwzAK2/?mibextid=31ks6x

    I noticed that. I think TxDOT is installing these signals instead of the City of Houston. The City of Houston specifies black signal heads for Downtown and Midtown. Usually TxDOT will try to match COH standards. Not sure what happened here.

    The sign now says June 8th. Not sure if they changed it or I initially misread it.

    That's the Wave Scheme used by TxDOT Houston District Green Ribbon Project. They started doing this about 20 years ago on most projects in the Houston District. I've noticed that projects in the Beaumont and Yoakum Districts close to the Houston District have used this too, namely on 99 East in Liberty and Chambers County, US 59 in Liberty County, I-10 in Austin County and US 59 in Wharton County. They use SW6242 Bracing Blue or PPG 546-6 Blue Zephyr for that shade of blue for the Wave Scheme.

    If she'd won, I'm not sure how long she'd be able to serve given her current health. She's made fewer public appearances lately. I saw her last week at Rev. Bill Lawson's funeral and she's lost quite a bit of weight, she had to walk with assistance, her voice was noticeably weak, and I noticed a tremor while she held a microphone.

    The electronic sign at the corner of N. MacGregor and South Fwy. NB feeder says the NB feeder will be closed starting on June 3rd.

    It was car 401. Here's a video from 2022 showing it in the red white and blue livery

    Looks like I'm not the only one who noticed it today https://www.instagram.com/reel/C6yrPlFLw_X/?igsh=MTZwbzJoaWlzcmxiMw==

    I saw this railcar in the original 2003 METRORail livery on the Red Line this evening. I hadn't seen one in years. I thought all their stock got painted/wrapped to be more visible to drivers? https://www.houstonpublicmedia.org/articles/news/2017/07/27/227633/metro-wants-to-make-its-light-rail-trains-more-visible/

    Adding a lane to right size a road? No problem. Taking away a lane to right size a road?

    From Griggs to Blythewood: https://ftp.txdot.gov/pub/txdot/get-involved/hou/us90a/041123-schematic-1.pdf From Calhoun to MLK: https://ftp.txdot.gov/pub/txdot/get-involved/hou/us90a/041123-schematic-2.pdf

    The schematics show it mostly unchanged.

    Does it seem like our streets and freeways are suddenly getting refreshed traffic lane markings and reflectors all at once? These past few weeks, I've noticed some city streets and freeways are getting fresh lane markings. It wouldn't be one agency doing it all since COH maintains most streets and TxDOT maintains the freeways. COH has been dragging on refreshing lane markings. I've seen them take over a year to refresh markings after a 311 request was submitted so it's good to see it happening. Maybe the COH and TxDOT are unusually in sync this time?

    That's why we need to get Chris Hollins back in the running. If he hadn't dropped out, I believe he and Whitmire would've gone to a runoff and left SJL in the dust.
