No, the portion referred to as Ed Bluestein has stop lights and is missing components of a bona fide freeway. They may have built that like BW8 in Houston, where they built frontage roads first, and then the tolled lanes came later.
..................
Seems I have read that any lanes that were previously free and built with tax payer dollars will remain that way. Some new lanes added would be tolled. So you could have a situation where you have 4 high speed, limited access lanes, but one of them is tolled. Much like what is talked about for Mopac and 183.
But I really haven't seen on paper, so can anyone clarify? I think that is RobDSM's original question. To further clarify, would high speed, limited access lanes be converted to frontage road, or is there going to be some mixture here?
