HOV lanes in 635 and another highway (believe I-35 by Royal Ln.) are going to be opening up soon and they are going to charge Toll way fees to drive on it. If you have 3 or more people you can get a discount. NTTA is already raping people with there fees! Pay or traffic.

Where did you get this information? Also, I wonder how they are going to be able to calculate the exact number of people inside the vehicle so that the discount can be applied?
Anyway... Good thing I don't need to drive on 635, anyway. Just roll off bed, walk upstairs and I'm in my office.

Yep. That is always the promise. My dad had a contract gig working at the HCTRA and said that most of the $$$ from tolls goes into a general fund. This fun can be used by politicians for anything without voter approval. They use very little for actual road repairs as they always claim. I don't know if or how it might be included in the budget though. This is why you will never see them be free.
