WFAA's Brad Watson has an enlightening report on just how much of our Downtown Trinity Park will be eaten up by the Trinity Toll Road. Watson actually goes down into the floodway, marks off the parkland the toll road will cover, and films it from above with a helicopter.
As an added bonus, watch former County Judge Lee Jackson stammer like a child caught with his hand in the cookie jar when Watson asks him why the NTTA's new watercolors show the road far from Crow Lake, while the engineering diagrams show that the toll road will force engineers to pave a significant portion of the lake.
