HOUSTON – If you talk to Tomaro Bell about TxDOT’s planned renovation for the North Freeway, she won’t nice words.
“Oh hell no. I say no. I say absolutely not,” Bell said, who sits on the Public Safety Committee of the Super Neighborhoods Alliance.
There is no muddying the waters with Bell. She said the I-45 improvement project will lead to just that, more muddy waters.
“When you tell people you are taking elevated freeways and putting them on the ground who just went through Harvey, that doesn’t even make sense. They don’t even have to be a civil engineer,” Bell said.
