UT wants to throw $13.5 mil at I-35 caps (self.austin)

This whole project is such a waste of money.

When your tuition goes up even more, this will be one reason why. Fascinating how the rendering for these “UT caps” show mostly parking lots.

I still haven’t seen any info on how the exorbitant yearly maintenance costs for these caps are going to be funded.

Seriously, every time I hear about it it looks like it would've been a prime spot for commuter rail.
