    everyone hates the 290. specially East of eldridge road... 1 traffic is bad during rush hour.. and even during off peak times it can be a nightmare. 2 construction has created bottlenecks and people are frustrated.. I personally love and enjoy every time that I go through the 290 because every time I get to see some type of update on construction and it's so awesome.. It honestly would feel so depressing for me to see the 290 be finished because I just got so used to construction near my house and I love highway construction.. so yeah... I don't use the freeway every day but I go through it at east once every two weeks... I love the video by the way... reminds me when the 290 was at its original shape.. it's the freeway that inspired me the most to what i wan t to be when I grow older and to my hobby, if I didn't live near 290 I would probably wonder what I would wanna be when I grow up... and i want to design highways and fix them so yeah... I'm sorry for the long comment but... idk.. I'm just saying.. what I think a freeway that I love..

    @Freewayjim The TxTags (Houston) and TollTags (Dallas) are being phased out; but TXDoT is taking their sweet-ass time doing it. In Dallas, they are using a system called ZipCash where you just drive through the booth and a closed circuit camera zaps your plate number, tracks down your address and sends you a bill via U.S. Mail or a prepaid account with the TollTag Authority. You can still keep your tag and use that for billing; but the coin slots and attendants will be a thing of the past.

    @Bryant5493 That, and it's not like they are adding any capacity, that would even be ok. I fail to see where GA's project will benefit the greater good. With this Katy Freeway Project, it was part of HUGE upgrade to the corridor, it makes sense to add HOT lanes, plus HOV users can use them for free.

    @Bryant5493 Just to use the regular HOV lanes with 2+ (3+ on the Northwest Freeway) occupants, your vehicle doesn't have to be registered in Texas. Neither does your vehicle have to be registered in Texas in order to purchas an EzTag (TxTag works for HCTRA tollways & toll lanes, but most places around Houston, including the airports, almost exclusively use EzTag).

    I-10 is so wide I'm trying to count how many lanes there are by just watching this video! Biggest freeway in the world, try to compare that to chinese freeways. I think the managed lanes toll price went down because traffic counts were low, 4 dollars for that was probably when traffic was all jammed and everything at rush hour. Anyway, I'm looking forward to seeing more H-Town videos!
