This project is part of the I-45 expansion (NHHIP). Join us tonight to ask about impacted housing, opportunities for feedback, construction timelines, and more. We can have flood mitigation without wider highways! #freedomnotfreeways #drainagejusticenow
Join us for an in-person community meeting for the North Canal Project TONIGHT, August 6 at 6:00 PM in the Legacy Room at City Hall 901 Bagby Street, Houston, TX 77002. The project will improve flood mitigation along White Oak and Buffalo Bayous. (1/2)
"We have asked TxDOT to carry forward other alternatives. Adding more lanes to the highway is just going to produce more traffic. It might be a temporary fix ... but in the long run, it's not." #ElPaso deserves better. #freedomnotfreeways #ClimateCrisis https://t.co/v85jJLdzjg
The stupidity of highway expansion comes full circle. Tearing down housing for more pavement. Up next - 20 blocks of EaDo will be destroyed for more pavement. Simply so the Woodlands can drive to Clear Lake a few minutes faster. #freedomnotfreeways #StopI10Elevation
🚨TxDOT begins tear-down of the Lofts at the Ballpark despite strong opposition from the @houmayor @JacksonLeeTX18 and locals.

“We've come to expect TxDOT to treat us like this. We will keep showing up and keep waiting for the FHWA verdict.” #FreedomNotFreeways

Video from yesterday in Austin fighting with @rethink35 , @StopTxDOTi45 , and others! #housingnothighways #freedomnotfreeways
The building is beautiful and historic, but they are the dept of TRANSPORTATION, not highways. For #ClimateJustice, for neighborhood quality of life, for economic equity, they must evolve, and we all need to demand better. #freedomnotfreeways
Double or triple that amount is proposed for projects in other cities. #ElPaso is worth the investment for a project that reduces noise/air pollution, works w street grid, and doesn’t mindless widen and add frontage through an urban core of NEIGHBORHOODS. 6/

The federal government should just funnel money directly to cities and local agencies instead of terrible state DOTs like @TxDOT. #FreedomNotFreeways means freedom from TXDOT destroying our cities. @StopTxDOTi45 2/2
@CommStout @TxDOT Two State Reps and a State Senator recently said they were in favor of widening the freeway because of the "data" - which comes from policies and funding models that are designed to produce one answer: 'we need to add capacity'
#FreedomNotFreeways
@CommStout @TxDOT Meaningful public engagement is NOT private meetings with handpicked individuals away from the public eye.
If @TxDOTCommission and @TxDOTCEO come to El Paso, we want to talk with them about safe routes for people who walk, ride bicycles, or take transit.

Chopping it up at the Texas Transportation Commission today. Big thanks to @StopTxDOTi45 for making it so easy for all of us to speak up today. A better future is possible! #FreedomNotFreeways
I spoke today at the @TxDOT TTC meeting in Austin against #Downtown10, the #ElPaso highway expansion. We learned that agency executives and cmmsrs are coming to EP. They should meet with opponents as well as boosters.

Check out my bro speaking up against the turkies at the Texas Transportation Commission! @Joe_Nilla_1 #freedomnotfreeways
Joseph Pazarella "For far too long we have torn our cities apart with needless highway expansion. With 10 billion dollars we could fund the entire 10 year bike plan for the city of Houston." @BikeHouston
All the state-wide action against freeway expansion gives me so much hope -- this racist infrastructre is one of the biggest pillars of settler plannning in our region. Scrapping it is long overdue #FreedomNotFreeways
#FreedomNotFreeways means freedom for all Texans to get around without a car
Before the last speaker in opposition had even reached their seat, the 3 present commissioners voted unanimously to approve the 2023 UTP as-is. The fight for #freedomnotfreeways continues, and it starts right here, in the @TxDOT basement, over tacos and words of encouragement ❤️
My comments against the I-45 expansion at the Texas Transportation Commission Meeting. @lryanheizer if you want to stop getting bullied on Twitter, QUIT KILLING US. #FREEDOMNOTFREEWAYS
Susan Graham reading a comment from @Karla4Houston "The choice we want is to work together" #FreedomNotFreeways
@TxDOTCommission and TxDOT get away with corporate greed and conflicts of interests in broad daylight every day. #FreedomNotFreeways
Liz Nguyen "You can't relate to poor people, Black and brown people because you are investors. Highway widening doesn't solve traffic and you're ignoring it because you make money from it."
